Official | Rennes sign Valentin Rongier from Marseille
Olympique de Marseille midfielder Valentin Rongier (30) has joined Ligue 1 rivals Rennes, both clubs have announced. The FC Nantes Academy product has signed a three-year deal with his formative clubโs arch-rivals. Rongier, entering the final year of his contract at Marseille, had refused an extension and will now be replaced by new OM signing Angel Gomes. It has been reported that Rongier will cost Rennes a โฌ7m transfer fee, taking into account performance-related add-ons.

Given his profile as a former Nantes graduate and several rivalry-related banter from him, Rongierโs arrival in Rennes will no doubt raise a few eyebrows in Rennes. The clubโs most prominent ultra group, Roazhon Celtic Kop, voiced their anger and described the move as an affront. The group strongly implied they would not accept the midfielderโs presence at Roazhon Park.
