Tiémoué Bakayoko was notably absent from Rennes’ training session on Thursday due to illness, as reported by the club’s website. The Ivorian midfielder is suffering from a fever, which raises doubts about his availability for the upcoming match against Nantes.
Having been promoted to Ligue 1 from the CFA this season, Bakayoko has made a notable impact, scoring a goal during Rennes’ 11th-day fixture against Toulouse. He has featured in 19 matches so far, with 16 of those appearances coming as a starter.
In addition to Bakayoko, Romain Alessandrini was also absent from training, albeit for different reasons. The French midfielder was spared from training due to unspecified environmental factors. However, there is a possibility that he may still be included in the squad for the upcoming match on the 26th matchday.
