Rennes Intensifies Pursuit of Szymanski, Complicating Olympiacos' Plans

French club Rennes has made a strong move for Szymanski, the 26-year-old midfielder from Fenerbahce, potentially hindering Olympiacos' interest in the player. Rennes has submitted a bid of €11-13 million, and Szymanski has reportedly agreed to a contract until 2030. The French club is seeking a player with Szymanski's profile to strengthen their midfield, while Fenerbahce is open to selling if their financial demands are met. Szymanski is no longer considered indispensable to the Turkish team, and Ligue 1 presents an attractive market for them. Olympiacos' potential acquisition of Szymanski would bolster their attacking line, providing quality and versatility.
