Sunday evening, Jérémy Doku (21) may have played his last match in the Stade Rennais jersey. Arrived in Brittany in 2020 from Anderlecht, the Belgian winger is very courted in England, since we revealed to you exclusively that the player already had an agreement with Manchester City (five-year contract) and that Rennes had refused a first West Ham approach.

With the arrival of Doku to replace Mahrez, Pep Guardiola has a formidable explosive player with great potential to develop.
