– According to The Sun, Manchester United is watching the Rennes talents Jeremy Jacquet and Mohamed Mayte. Scouts were present during Rennes’ recent 1-0 victory over Paris FC on November 7, focusing on Jacquet, who is 20 and has played every minute this season, and the promising 18-year-old Mayte. Jacquet was pursued by Arsenal and Crystal Palace last summer before renewing his contract until 2029.

– Ajax’s highly-rated Jolsey Mokio is attracting interest from Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Eintracht Frankfurt, as reported by Sascha Tavolieri from Swiss Sky Sports. At 17, he is under contract until 2027, but discussions about an extension have stalled, and he is reportedly seeking a new chapter in his career. Mokio, a defensive midfielder who made his debut for Belgium in March, can also function as a center-back and left-back.

– Al Ahly striker Ivan Tony is contemplating a 50% pay cut to return to the Premier League and pursue his England ambitions at the World Cup, according to TEAMtalk. The 29-year-old has netted 11 times in 15 matches this season and believes a Premier League return is essential for his international aspirations. Tottenham Hotspur remains a leading contender for his signature, facing competition from Everton.

– Crystal Palace is reportedly under the impression that Liverpool is the only club eyeing center-back Marc Gehi during the January transfer window. Under contract until season’s end, Gehi can sign a pre-contract with clubs outside of England starting January 1. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Barcelona are interested, but Liverpool is expected to be the first to act if the chance arises, particularly given concerns over Ibrahima Konate’s fitness.

– Fiorentina’s primary January target is Chelsea’s young defender Josh Achiampong, according to Tuttomercatoweb. Although he had exposure with the first team, a loan move is being considered. If that cannot happen, Chelsea’s Axel DiSasi, who has been left out of the first team plans, is another option.

Expert Opinion

Thor Christian Carlsen, ESPN’s scout, analyzes Rennes’ two rising stars.

Jacquet is quickly becoming one of France’s most exciting young center-backs just a year into his top-flight journey. His game awareness and composure on the ball set him apart, allowing him seven progressive passes per 90 minutes while being disciplined in defense—traits that have become staples of his gameplay.

Despite not having the most imposing stature at 6ft 2in, he possesses remarkable jumping ability, with a 74% success rate in aerial duels, the best in Ligue 1 among centre-backs with over 1,000 minutes this season.

Meite is also shaping up as an effective number nine. Though he stands at 6ft 4in, he combines target man attributes with agility and skill, having won 75% of his duels in the air this season. His progression from a substitute last season to a significant contributor this year reflects Rennes’ faith in his talent.
