Lots of talk that Rashford needs surgery on his injury so imagine we'll be without him for a while. In that scenario we'd be left with the following left forward options:

- James
- Martial
- Sancho (assuming he signs)

If Martial was sold this Summer then we'd only be left with 2 options, one of whom was signed as a RW option. We'd be a little short on numbers. Getting this lad on a 15-20m euro deal would make sense.
Greenwood, Pogba, Elanga, Hannibal, Shoetire....mainly young but still plenty of options and the first two are probably better than Rashford anyway

Why are they not going full Man City then?
Not sure what went wrong because I haven't followed them closely. But Rennes under their current ownership were tipped to be PSG's closest challengers a few years ago.

Realization that throwing money into a team doesn't make him any money in return. Only reason city and psg do it to this extent is because they want PR. If it became financially beneficial to invest his money longterm he would probably do it.

I think he could be Doku's replacement at Rennes as Liverpool were looking to replace Mane with Doku couple months back.

We shouldn't definitely buy him, loan him out to a club in Premier League, Germany, France, Italy or Spain and have have him playing in the RW position every other game at least for one year.

I have follwed this guy for quite some time and he be great with the right club.

Kamaldeen Sulemana arrives in Rennes this evening! Medical check-up tomorrow. Rennes overtook Ajax Amsterdam.
We may have to close this thread by the end of this week.

EDIT: English Tweet

Yeah, my bad. I've corrected it now. That Tweet was immediately above the Sulemana one in my timeline.
All good, just to notify you before more people would jump on it.

Surprised he is going to Rennes, but should get plenty of game time and less pressure.

He should have went to Holland. I’d say Ajax are quite conservative with the cash though…

According to the Dutch paper "De Telegraaf", the deal was done and he was in Amsterdam awaiting his medical, when he wanted some more time to think and asked for assurances that he'll be guaranteed starter :lol:
Apparently he has gotten those at Rennes. Ajax pulled the plug on the deal themselves.

Good on them for being nobodies bitch, if you ask me.

Sounds familiar... I once heard someone say that we let Dortmund sign Jude Bellingham so that we could get Haaland instead.
I was joking - don’t think any clubs seriously have those conversations

We've not had someone that electric since Nani left. We have a couple of skilful players such as Sancho etc. But nothing at breakneck speed like him. It's YT but I don't care, would love to see someone of that mould at the club.

Well I think this confirms he will be leaving this summer rather than on a free next year but could be anyone

I think he might regret not committing to Ajax over Rennes. Guaranteed champions league football at Ajax in addition to Kudus playing there and helping him settle.

Surprised that the French clubs are gazumping Champions League competing teams at the moment. That Rennes team could do damage next year if they hang on to Camavinga. Doku and Suleimana will be absolutely terrify a lot of defences.
