After relaunching Clément Grenier, can Guingamp bring Paul-Georges Ntep back to football? According to information from L'Equipe and Ouest-France, the former wing of Stade Rennais could make a comeback in Brittany. Without club since the termination of his contract with Wolfsburg in February, the French player could bounce back in Ligue 2. Paul-Georges Ntep must pass his medical examination this Wednesday before committing to the team coached by Sylvain Didot, who has finished the season in eighth place.

Regularly wounded by injuries, the powerful left winger has never managed to win since his departure from Stade Rennais in 2017. In Wolfsburg, he played little, before being loaned to Saint-Etienne, where his passage did will not be remembered. But it was even worse afterwards. After a new white season in the Bundesliga, Ntep was loaned to Turkey but did not win at Kayserispor either, where he terminated his contract. Wolfsburg did the same in February, leaving PG without a club for the truncated end of the season.

Ntep, this would be the typical Guingampaise bet.
Character player, free, explosive eccentric profile, faithful to that sought.
It remains to be hoped that he will be spared because what a fabulous player in full possession of his means.
It would be the first move of the new project.

On the social networks, the arrival of the wingman seemed to delight the Guingampais supporters, who almost all expressed the same reservation: "If he doesn't get injured, it's a good choice". Since his arrival in Brittany, the player has multiplied the physical glitches, limiting his impact in the game. An explosive player, Ntep had made his power and acceleration his main force. At 27, he will no doubt have to find other assets to perform. En Avant is waiting for that.

In Rennes, we will especially remember his pawns against the Nantes rival and his incredible goal of the head, knees on the ground against Reims. It was six years ago. Since then, Ntep has crossed the desert.
