Florian Maurice, the Technical Director of Stade Rennais, expresses admiration for Ghanaian defender Alidu Seidu, hailing him as one of the top players in his position following his recent move to the club.
Alidu Seidu, a versatile 23-year-old, completed a transfer valued at approximately €11 million from fellow Ligue 1 side Clermont Foot. Despite limited playing time in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, Seidu underwent mandatory medical checks upon his return and has committed to a four-year contract extending until 2028.
Maurice commends Seidu's swift acclimatization to the French top flight since his debut a few seasons ago. He highlights the player's incredible mentality, great leadership, and rapid adaptation to Ligue 1, asserting that Seidu is among the best in his position.
“He's a player who's been identified for some time, who's been proving himself at Clermont for a few years now, with an incredible mentality and great leadership. He adapted very quickly to Ligue 1 and is one of the best in his position,” Florian Maurice told the club’s official website.
“We always hope that things work out when we recruit, but in any case, he has what it takes to become a successful player for Stade Rennais.”
