According to Kicker, Bayer Leverkusen are close to reaching an agreement to sign Rennes defender Jeanuël Belocian (19).
The French defender, capable of playing in the central position and on the left, played 27 games in all competitions for the Breton club last season and deserves Bayer’s first acquisition in the summer.
Florian Plettenberg also adds that Bayer Leverkusen will pay around €15 million to sign the Frenchman, who will sign a five-year contract until 2029.
Born in Les Abymes, Guadeloupe, Belocian made 18 appearances for the Under-19s and Rennes reserve team before making his first-team debut at the age of 17 under Bruno Génésio.
“It’s what you would expect from a trendy centre-back,” said Bastien Cheval of Get French Football News. “He’s raw, but flexible because he can play as a left-back and he’s not afraid to worry about preparation. “.
As reported by Kicker, Belocian will continue his progression in Die Werkself and will compete with Alejandro Grimaldo and Piero Hincapié. While Josip Stanišić also returns to Bayern Munich after his loan, the Frenchman could also provide central coverage, in Bayer’s back three.
