Stade Rennais is about to acquire a new goalkeeper with Brice Samba, from RC Lens. An arrival which raises questions about the future of Steve Mandanda. The ex-Marseille player could wonder about the rest of his career.
While he had already been dismissed by Jorge Sampaoli at Olympique de Marseille, the Argentine technician repeated in Rennes where he decided to recruit Brice Samba (Lens). However, Sampaoli continues to praise his goalkeeper at a press conference, but we must not hide our faces, he hardly appreciates the ex-Marseil player who will suffer a downgrade in the hierarchy of goalkeepers. This had already been the case at OM, this proves that the Argentinian is not convinced by the player most captured with OM.

Samba to replace Mandanda
Jorge Sampaoli once again chose not to give Steve Mandanda a chance. According to newspaper information The Teaman agreement in principle was reached between Rennes and RC Lens for a transfer of Brice Samba, who should sign a four and a half year contract (2029).
Steve Mandanda is coming to the end of his contract at the end of the season and could decide to end his career. The media claims that it is impossible to see him cohabiting with Brice Samba in Rennes. At 39, he could terminate his contract and sign for another club or end his career.
