Saïdou Sow is set to make a mid-season switch to FC Nantes, joining the Ligue 1 side on a five-month loan from Strasbourg, according to Foot Mercato.
The 22-year-old Guinean international will stay with Les Canaris until the season’s end, with no option to buy included in the deal.
The defender has already traveled to Nantes for his medical, with an official announcement expected soon to confirm the move. The rapid decision-making by the Nantes hierarchy highlights their determination to bolster their defensive options.
Sow, who has made 13 appearances for Strasbourg this season under Liam Rosenior, has been a key player for the Racing Club, featuring in 61% of their available minutes. However, the young centre-back will likely see more first-team action with Nantes, as he aims to prove himself further in Ligue 1. The move promises a fresh challenge for Sow, as he looks to secure regular playing time and continue his development.
