In barely one season, Gaëtan Laborde had conquered the hearts of Rennes supporters, through his commitment and his many goals, despite a disappointing end to the season from a statistical point of view last year. Not enough in the eyes of the Rennes leaders, who agreed to sell it to a direct competitor at the very end of the transfer window: OGC Nice. Nice striker Amine Gouiri should do the opposite.
A transfer which is reminiscent of that of Raphinha at the very end of the transfer window in the summer of 2020, then replaced by the promising Jérémy Doku, who has not so far met the expectations placed on him. Raphinha is now a FC Barcelona player.
