Overview

• Reporter Sacha Tavolieri says Al Hilal have made contact and labeled the 20-year-old a priority, yet talks have not advanced and he is not inclined to move to Saudi Arabia at this stage.
• Fabrizio Romano previously reported initial contact from Arsenal, with their pursuit viewed as contingent on potential defensive departures such as Jakub Kiwior.
• Real Madrid are monitoring the situation and have been credited with entering the race, according to Spanish and Arsenal-focused outlets.
• Jacquet is under contract with Rennes until 2029, and despite a £8.7m Transfermarkt valuation, reports expect any transfer to require a significantly higher fee.
• The Rennes academy product has started both Ligue 1 matches this season after a loan spell at Clermont and offers centre-back and right-back versatility with a ball-carrying style likened to William Saliba.
