Habib Beye has steered Stade Rennais to safety since taking charge in January, guiding the team to four victories in five matches and lifting them to 12th place in the Ligue 1 standings.
While the club’s resurgence has eased relegation fears, a push for European qualification remains out of reach in what has been a challenging season.
Contract Clause Secures Beye’s Future
According to L’Équipe, Beye’s future at Rennes is already determined, as his contract includes a clause triggering an automatic one-year extension should he remain at the club.
Despite speculation linking Franck Haise to the role, Beye is now expected to continue as head coach next season.
The club’s hierarchy appears committed to giving him the opportunity to build a more structured long-term project.
Focus Shifts to Squad Strengthening
Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, Beye will lead Rennes into the 2025/26 campaign, with preparations already underway for the summer transfer window.
The coach is reportedly identifying key areas for reinforcement as he aims to restore Rennes’ ambitions of securing a European place in the coming seasons.
