Florian Maurice took stock of the Rennes transfer window this Tuesday during the presentation of Azor Matusiva.
During Azore Matusiva’s press presentation this Tuesday afternoon, Florian Maurice took stock of the progress of the Rennes transfer window, discussing possible moves to come over the next eight days.
“It is a transfer window of adjustment, not of upheavalHe explained in comments reported by Western France. It’s always complicated in January, really hard to measure. Things can happen in the last ten days, we think we can do one or two more recruitments. But it will depend on opportunities, we will not do anything, and we must also be vigilant in relation to the current group, so as not to unbalance the locker room. »
The Rennes technical director is not opening the door to a major move, without closing it too, knowing that opportunities and offers often pile up in the final days of the transfer window. “The team has recently returned to a more than acceptable level of play. There is no limit to what we can do, but we need to reflect to do consistent things, so that it doesn’t flare up.Morris insists. Departure or arrival, up to 1er Midnight in February, we know, it’s the transfer window, a lot of things can still happen. »
Seidu will arrive after CAN, another defender is desired
The next recruit should be Elidu Seidu for whom SRFC have agreed a transfer agreement with Clermont for 11 million euros plus two million in bonuses. The medical examination will be scheduled according to Ghana’s fate at CAN, with the Black Stars officially eliminated this Tuesday evening.
The Ghanaian is versatile and can play very well on the right as well as in the middle. Florian Maurice has also made no secret of the fact that the Breton club continue to look for a central defender, the daily suggests. “Things happen inside the locker room, then we really look, we try to find the best solution that will bring us a real plus.he said. It is difficult to let go of a very good player who is fit, because the club cannot let him go in January. Alidu Seidu can also play in the middle, but for the moment he is not there… We have some options, we are working on them as best we can, but it is not easy. »
Regarding the case of Nemanja Matić, with whom the divorce is registered, there have been no new developments, at least in terms of sports. “We are trying to find solutions that are good for everyone, they are in progress, but I don’t want to express myself on this topic for the moment”, Morris steps forward. In an attack, it will depend on the start: “The first half of the season fell short of expectations, not only in relation to the attackers. If we have to bring in another offensive player, I don’t want to stack players. So the thinking is really in that direction. » See you in a week or so to confirm.
