Stade Rennais is reportedly considering former Senegalese international Demba Ba for a position within its technical staff ahead of next season.
Ba, who is currently leading USL Dunkerque in Ligue 2, has been instrumental in the club’s impressive campaign.
Under his guidance, Dunkerque has climbed to fourth place, putting them on the brink of securing a historic promotion to Ligue 1.
Should Dunkerque achieve this remarkable feat, Ba may opt to step away from his current role in pursuit of a fresh challenge.
Rennes has emerged as a potential destination, with the club reportedly viewing his profile as a strong fit for their long-term plans.
Following a disappointing Ligue 1 season, Rennes is battling to secure a European qualification spot.
The possible appointment of Ba to a key role in the sporting department could signal a shift in the club’s strategy as they look to rebuild and strengthen their squad for the future.
