The West France and The Team media report a growing interest of Milan AC for Bayern Munich’s central defender, Conrad Harder. The Italian club recently showed up to recruit the player, raising concerns about a possible departure from Harder, recalling Kim Min-Jae’s scenario with Stade Rennais. Three years ago, the transfer from Harder to Brittany had failed by last minute, the South Korean finally opting for Naples after his departure from Fenerbahçe. Although the situation is still uncertain, there are serious doubts about the conclusion of the negotiations.

Harder’s arrival in Milan could jeopardize a previous agreement between Stade Rennais and Sporting Portugal to acquire the attacker. An agreement would have been reached with the Portuguese club for an allowance of 25 million euros, including bonuses. However, Milan AC expressed a strong interest, and an agreement between the three parties might even have been reached, a decision expected on Monday. If this file were to cease, Stade Rennais would find itself in an urgent situation to recruit an attacker.

In the face of this urgency, the Rennes could revive the track leading to Esteban Lepaul (Angers), although no agreement was reached with the SCO regarding the transfer allowance, despite an agreement with the player himself. In addition, Ouest-France reveals Rennes’ interest in Lucas Stassin, which would require a common ground with AS Saint-Étienne. These different tracks demonstrate the need for the Rennes club to strengthen its attack.
