Kyogo's Rennes Future Uncertain as Club Plans Summer Sale

Kyogo Furuhashi's move from Celtic to Rennes has quickly turned into a disappointment, with the 30-year-old striker managing only four appearances and one start since his transfer in January. His lack of playing time has raised questions about his future at the club, especially after the sacking of coach Jorge Sampaoli just days after his arrival. Reports indicate that Rennes is planning to replace Kyogo, with potential targets including former French international Florian Thauvin and Croatian striker Franjo Ivanovic. Kyogo's struggles in Ligue 1 have also affected his international prospects, as he was left out of the starting lineup for Japan's recent World Cup qualifiers despite being included in the squad. His former Celtic teammates, Daizen Maeda and Reo Hatate, continue to perform well for Japan, further highlighting Kyogo's current plight. Speculation suggests he may need to leave Rennes to revive his career and seek more playing opportunities.
