It will be presented this Friday evening to the public before the kickoff of the derby against Nantes. Steven Nzonzi, who has never played in Ligue 1, will wear the Red and Black jersey 25.

Already loaned by AS Rome to the Galatasaray club at the start of the season, Steven Nzonzi had a very mixed stay in Turkey. In mid-December, he was dismissed from the workforce for "inappropriate behavior". He will therefore come back to Brittany and bring all his experience in the Rennes midfield.
