Rennes is reportedly eager to bring Florian Thauvin, the Udinese captain and former France international, back to France. With Thauvin's contract set to expire at the end of the season, he has become an attractive target for Rennes, who are in search of replacements for Kyogo. Reports suggest that Rennes might need to offload some players before they can make new additions to their squad in the summer, following a disappointing start to the season that has left them 15 points adrift of the European qualification spots in Ligue 1. This situation underscores why Thauvin, soon to be out of contract, is a particularly appealing option for Rennes.
