Stade Rennais should be active during the next winter transfer window.
“It’s not an ideal situation, but it is what it is. The city, the club, the leaders, the supporters deserve something else. It’s a new stage, we’re going to have to work a lot.” Jorge Sampaoli did not beat around the bush when commenting on the situation of the Stade Rennais.
Inducted onto the bench of the Breton club, the former coach of Olympique de Marseille has his work cut out for him. And to get things back on track, the Argentinian technician holds nothing back, just like his management. “We will do everything and if there is a need to intervene in the transfer window, the owners will support the club,” thus released the sports director Frederic Massara.
Sampaoli would already have 2 names in mind
Words that could be translated into action quite quickly. Because according to the Brazilian media Globo Esporte, Sampaoli would not have taken long to communicate a short list to his management. 2 names would emerge in the mind of the new Rennes coach.
The first is none other than Gerson, a player already experienced in Ligue 1 games. Former protégé of Sampaoli at Olympique de Marseille and Atlético Mineiro, the Brazilian midfielder still plays in his country, at Flamengo. He seems to be on the ropes at Stade Rennais.
The Breton club would also have checked the name of Fabricio Bruno. Already targeted by Stade Rennais last summer, this central defender also worked with Sampaoli on the Flamengo side last season. The January window should be lively behind the scenes at Stade Rennais…
