Seko Fofana, the Ivorian midfielder, has extended his commitment to Stade Rennais with a new contract lasting until 2031. This extension underscores the club’s confidence in Fofana’s abilities and his pivotal role in their future plans.
Fofana’s journey to Rennes has been marked by significant transfers. In July 2023, he joined Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr for a reported €25 million. However, his tenure in Saudi Arabia was brief, leading to a loan move to Al-Ettifaq in January 2024. After a successful stint, he rejoined Al-Ettifaq on loan in August 2024. In January 2025, Fofana made a permanent return to France, signing with Rennes on a four-and-a-half-year contract for €20 million, marking the most expensive sale in Saudi Pro League history.
