Nantes dismiss their head of recruitment | OneFootball

FC Nantes have parted ways with Baptiste Drouet, their head of recruitment, according to information from Ouest-France.

Having joined in the summer of 2023, the Nantes native has been ousted by president Waldemar Kita. It is the end of a collaboration that never really proved fruitful, as the confidence placed in Drouet has always been very limited. Quickly called into question by Kita, the 36-year-old nevertheless managed to earn some credit.

But the events of recent months will have worn it down. Starting with the recruitment of Luis Castro, whose spell on Les Canaris‘ bench lasted only 15 matches before coming to an end due to poor results – five wins, two draws and eight defeats.

The last summer transfer window, during which nine players joined Nantes, was also deemed a failure. And with good reason, since four of them (Hong Hyun-seok, Kwon Hyeok-kyu, Junior Mwanga, Mayckel Lahdo) have already packed their bags, while two others (Uros Radaković, Amady Camara) do not seem to be part of the plans.
