Nampalys Mendy, who has not played since last October, is expected to leave Lens before the transfer window closes. Although AS Saint-Etienne showed interest, Rennes is reportedly set to sign the Senegalese player, as reported by La Voix du Nord. This acquisition is part of Rennes' proactive recruitment strategy this winter. At 32, Mendy has only appeared in four Ligue 1 matches this season and is eager to capitalize on the final days of the transfer market to secure his move. The former Nice player will join the ambitious Rennes squad, which has been actively bolstering their team this winter.
