He entered the history of FC Nantes by signing his first pro contract at the age of 16 in 2017. Abdoulaye Dabo (19), a pure product of Jonelière, will be loaned to Juventus Turin early next week.

Information unveiled by the Italian press that

confirms.

The loan comes with a purchase option in the amount of 1.5 million euros (it will only be exercised if conditions are met), according to our information.

There would be bonuses for the FCN in the event of a permanent transfer of the attacking midfielder next summer.

Abdoulaye Dabo, who had already been the subject of a firm offer of 7 million from Juve in 2018, refused by the Nantes management, is expected in Turin at the beginning of next week.

The native of Bellevue played with the reserve team (N2) this season, but was not always the holder.

We had seen it when Miguel Cardoso was on the Nantes bench in 2018. Under contract until 2022, he had held twice in L1, then had disappeared from pro radars, contenting himself with a few sessions from time to time.

During all this time, the FCN for example took on loan players in the register of Dabo like Benavente and Boschilia.

Without much success.

This departure of a young player, considered for some trainers as a great hope, is not the first and will not be the last.

Batista Mendy (20) and Thomas Basila (21) could well leave free at the end of the season.
