He grew up in one of the best European football schools at Stade Rennais, one of those clubs that aren’t afraid to throw youngsters in the deep end. He made his Ligue 1 debut at the age of 18 in August 2020 and his first games in European competition also came that season, with two appearances in the UEFA Champions League.
