Stade Rennais president Olivier Létang, here in September 2018. - C. Allain / 20 Minutes

So no one had seen it coming. This Friday, Stade Rennais announced that Olivier Létang was leaving the presidency of the club. Appointed in 2017 to replace René Ruello, the former PSG leader will be replaced by Jacques Delanoë, current chairman of the board, "pending the appointment of the new leader," said the club.

On the eve of the derby against Brest, the Rennes club separated from its thinking head. Without explanation, nor warning sign. "François-Henri Pinault, the shareholder of Stade Rennais FC since 1998, thanks Olivier Létang for his commitment and for his contribution to the great trajectory of the club since his arrival in November 2017," the club said in a press release.

"The club can rely on solid teams to continue the current season in the best conditions."
