As expected, Stade Rennais will not stop at the sole signing of Elias Legendre Quiñonez, who made his debut in Ligue 1 on Saturday evening, during the defeat of Habib Beye’s men at the Parc des Princes (5-0).
After announcing the Franco-Ecuadorian striker’s first professional contract until 2029, the Breton club is preparing to register another signing, that of defender Ruben Lomet.
While discussions have been underway for several weeks, an agreement has been reached, according to our information, for the 17-year-old left-handed axial to sign pro in turn this week.
With the Bleuets at the U17 World Cup
Having passed through the French youth teams from U16 to U18, this pure Breton, born in Saint-Malo, was the sole representative of Stade Rennais during the U17 World Cup which ended last month in Qatar.
Number 5 on the back, he was captain of the selection selected by Lionel Rouxel, who left the competition in the round of 16, eliminated after a cruel scenario by Brazil.
Since his integration into Rennes in 2019, Lomet has been identified as a solid potential, who largely contributed to the victory of the Rouge et Noir in the Gambardella Cup last season, alongside scorer Kader Meïté, Lucas Rosier and Ayoub Akabou who we find more and more often among the pros.
