Receiving a slightly unexpected offer from RB Leipzig for Arthur Theate, Stade Rennais are considering their options and looking at potential replacements.
One of the options they are considering is a move for Manchester United’s Victor Lindelöf, who isn’t a part of Erik ten Hag’s first-team plans.
He will certainly get minutes this season with the Champions League and various cups, but he is no longer a guaranteed starter at Old Trafford, and RMC Sport report Rennes have already ‘enquired’ about him.
The 29-year-old ‘is enjoying himself’ with the Red Devils, but the Ligue 1 side could use an ace up their sleeve in the form of Nemanja Matic.
The former Manchester United midfielder recently signed in France from AS Roma, and the two players know each other from their time together at Old Trafford.
This could be an unexpected bonus for Rennes, although they still have a long way to go before getting his approval, it seems.
