Transfer news indicated Seko Fofana’s return to Europe after leaving Saudi Arabia.

Seko Fofana is set for a return to Europe, marking a significant move back to Ligue 1 with Rennes after his stint in Saudi Arabia.

The midfielder, formerly with Udinese, spent just two years in the Middle Eastern country.

Fofana played one season with Al-Nassr alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and another with Al-Ettifaq.

However, he has now opted to return to the French top flight, eager to make his mark once again in Europe.

“Seko Fofana is a Red and Black,” confirmed a statement from Rennes, announcing his eagerly anticipated return to the league.

His return is expected to bolster Rennes’ midfield significantly as they aim to make a strong impact in the upcoming season.
