According to L'Équipe, Djaoui Cissé could leave Rennes for Strasbourg. Talks between the clubs are under way, though a deal is not close.

Strasbourg’s interest, first noted on 17 August, has gathered pace. The Rennes academy graduate is under contract until 2030.

He has been seen as a potential departure since the start of the window, after a season less eye-catching than the end of the previous one.

Cissé is said to have given his approval to Strasbourg, and he is minded to join only Racing.

Strasbourg have offered about €12 million plus €3 million in bonuses, while Rennes are seeking close to €20 million. The gap could narrow.
