Cameroon central midfielder Wilitty Younoussa, who currently plays for Ligue 2 side Rodez AF, is being linked with a step up to Ligue 1 with FC Nantes.
The 24-year-old, valued at around €900k, has emerged as a target for the Canaries as they look to reinforce their midfield options. Data from Transfermarkt lists the move as a rumour, with the probability of a deal still marked as “?”, underlining that talks, if any, remain at an early stage.
Younoussa, born on 9 September 2001 in Tochllire, Cameroon, has become a key figure for Rodez, wearing the number 8 shirt and operating primarily as a central midfielder. Standing at 1.74m and right-footed, he has built a reputation in Ligue 2 for energy between the lines and reliable ball circulation.
Rodez, currently competing in France’s second tier, have used Younoussa consistently this season, with his latest notable outing coming in a recent Ligue 2 fixture for the club – though detailed statistics from that specific match, including the opponent, date and scoreline, are not listed in the available data.
With no contract expiry date publicly recorded and no confirmation of an extension, there is uncertainty around the length of his current deal at Rodez, prompting suggestions that Nantes could attempt to capitalise if his situation edges towards free‑agent territory in the medium term.
Younoussa has only been listed with Cameroonian nationality and is yet to be associated with another senior club in the data provided, making Rodez his primary platform in European football. His market value of €900k positions him as a relatively low‑cost option for a Ligue 1 side seeking depth and potential resale value.
If a move to Nantes does materialise, it would offer Younoussa a first taste of top‑flight football in France and a significant chance to elevate his profile and career trajectory.
