Dimitry Bertaud is expected to depart Montpellier at the conclusion of the 2024/25 season after failing to reach a contract extension agreement with the Ligue 1 club.
The Congolese goalkeeper has attracted interest from Le Havre in France and Lausanne Sport in Switzerland, according to Africasoccer.
Born in Montpellier, France, Bertaud has spent his entire professional career with his hometown club.
Having joined Montpellier’s senior squad in the 2014/15 season, he has alternated between the first team and the reserves.
However, it was not until the 2017/18 campaign that he earned his first senior start.
Despite his long tenure with the club, Bertaud has been unable to cement himself as the first-choice goalkeeper.
With his contract set to expire in June 2025, negotiations over an extension have stalled, making his departure increasingly likely this summer.
The 26-year-old is not short of suitors. Sources indicate that two clubs are positioning themselves to secure his services.
In France, Le Havre is reportedly considering him as a replacement for Arthur Desmas, who is expected to leave.
Meanwhile, Lausanne Sport is also showing keen interest in signing the Congolese shot-stopper.
Bertaud, currently valued at €1.20 million on Transfermarkt, now faces a crucial decision regarding the next stage of his career.
With opportunities arising in both Ligue 1 and the Swiss Super League, his future remains an intriguing prospect as the summer transfer window approaches.
