Forward Atnaud Kalimuendo bagged a hat trick, with Ludovic Blas adding the other for Rennes who moved up to 12th on the Ligue 1 standings.

Seidu had played every game for Rennes this season until the devastating injury last weekend.

He is expected to be out of action for the next 8-9 months. It is expected that Seidu will miss Ghana’s 2026 World Cup games against Chad and Madagascar scheduled for March 2025.
