Reports Link Arsenal, Man United, Liverpool and Chelsea to Rennes Defender Jérémy Jacquet
A long-term deal through 2029 gives Rennes leverage to seek a premium if suitors make a January move.
Overview
- Multiple outlets citing TEAMtalk say Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea are tracking the 20-year-old centre-back, with Real Madrid also credited with interest.
- Jacquet has broken through at Rennes this season with 16 Ligue 1 appearances and five clean sheets after a development loan at Clermont Foot.
- He is under contract until 2029, and while Transfermarkt lists his value around £17m, reports suggest Rennes can command a sizable fee.
- No formal offers have been reported, and coverage frames any transfer as possible either in January or during the summer window.
- Context around the interest includes defensive issues at Manchester United, Chelsea’s injury problems at centre-back, and Liverpool evaluating options given Ibrahima Konaté’s contract situation, as reported.
