Nzonzi to Rennes via Rome

Steven Nzonzi has terminated his loan contract with Galatasaray and moved to Rennes, via Roma, on loan with option to extend.

The midfielder had split off from Galatasaray following a blazing row with his coach and teammates, demanding a transfer.

It took until the final day of the January transfer window, but Roma have found him a new destination.

He has signed for Stade Rennais, on loan with option to extend for another season, and the Giallorossi will not be paying any of his salary.
