Ghanaian footballer Alidu Seidu has officially completed a transfer to Stade Rennais in the French Ligue 1, marking a significant move in his career, as confirmed by French tabloids.
Stade Rennais, after persistent efforts, successfully reached an agreement to secure the talented defender during the ongoing transfer window. This accomplishment follows three rejected offers from Clermont Foot, emphasizing the determination of the Red and Black side to acquire Seidu.
The 23-year-old defender, who has garnered attention with his exceptional performances at Clermont Foot, is anticipated to play a pivotal role for his new team, Stade Rennais. His impressive stint at Clermont Foot, where he made 14 appearances and contributed with one assist, undoubtedly played a crucial role in attracting interest from the higher-profile Ligue 1 club.
The financial details of the transfer reveal that Stade Rennais secured Seidu for a reported fee of 11 million Euros, plus additional bonuses. This substantial investment underscores the club’s belief in the player’s potential and the impact he can bring to their defensive lineup.
Despite the completion of the transfer, the official unveiling of Alidu Seidu is expected to take place after the conclusion of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, where the talented defender is currently engaged in representing the Black Stars.
Seidu’s journey to Rennais follows a successful chapter with Clermont Foot, making a seamless transition from one Ligue 1 club to another. His notable performances in the ongoing campaign have not only caught the eye of Rennais but have also earned him a place in the national team, the Black Stars, currently competing in the AFCON tournament.
Although Alidu Seidu is yet to make an appearance for the Black Stars during the ongoing AFCON, his inclusion in the squad speaks volumes about his growing prominence in Ghanaian football. As he embarks on this new chapter with Stade Rennais, football enthusiasts eagerly anticipate witnessing the continued rise of this promising Ghanaian defender on the prestigious Ligue 1 stage.
