Valentin Rongier determined to leave OM, Blas and Trebel still wanted

He was not on the field, but his name was on everyone's lips after the victory (1-0) of FC Nantes on Saturday night against Montpellier. The face of
Valentin Rongier, seated in the stands alongside his agent Franck Belhassen, appeared during the match several times on the giant stadium screen. Each time, whistles descended from the stands of the Beaujoire.

The Nantes midfielder, who had asked not to play against the Herault, is determined to go to Marseille. He repeated it to Waldemar Kita and his son, Franck, before the match, in the intimacy of the Beaujoire. The interview was long and tense. A bit like the relationship maintained between the two parties since Thursday, date of the offer of OM (11 million euros for Nantes with a payment in three installments). A proposal deemed insufficient and ridiculous by the management of the FCN which claims 20 million euros for its captain …

FCN offers different options to OM

Rongier already imagines in the jersey of OM and does not count on returning to the Jonelière. He recalls that President Kita had promised him during his last extension not to hinder his progress if a suitable project presented itself to him and that the money would not be a drag on his flight … For his part, Waldemar Kita does not do not sell his captain, made in Jonelière. In the entourage of Rongier, it is estimated that the negotiations have made a positive progress in recent hours. At FC Nantes, we confirm this progress while remaining firm on the conditions. The Nantes management has sent a counter-proposal with different options. The ball is in the OM camp. Discussions between the different will continue. A departure of the Marseillais Gustavo in Turkey would bail out the Olympian caisses and would undoubtedly facilitate that of Rongier …

Regarding the mercato Nantes, Ludovic Blas is still hoped. The FCN would have made an offer to 6 million + bonus to Guingamp, who said he was open to a departure from his midfielder. Christian Gourcuff is seduced by this profile. The Waris and Trebel files are still relevant. That of a left side (after the departure of Lucas Lima) much less. The young Wesley Mustache could become the lining of Charles Traore. In central defense, Andrei Girotto is seriously settling alongside Nicolas Pallois. The recruitment of a central defender no longer seems relevant.
