Stade Rennais have turned down Bayern’s €35m offer for their 19-year-old star, Désiré Doué, reports Kicker.
The talented attacking midfielder is not only on Bayern’s radar. According to GFFN, Premier League giants Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are also interested.
Rennais value Doué much higher than Bayern’s initial bid. Last year, they sold Jérémy Doku to Manchester City for €60m. They believe they can fetch a similar fee for Doué, including bonuses.
Bayern are expected to make a better offer soon, especially with other clubs showing interest.
The German club is gearing up for a crucial transfer window as they aim to reclaim the Bundesliga title from Bayer Leverkusen.
Doué, a product of Rennais’ youth academy, has already played over 75 matches for his hometown club, scoring 8 goals and providing 7 assists.
He is regarded as one of the top young prospects in European football.
In 2022, Doué became the first player born in 2005 to score as a professional and the youngest French player to score in European club competitions.
Though primarily an attacking midfielder, Doué’s versatility allows him to play deeper in midfield, on the wings, or even as a forward. His dynamic style, marked by agility, acceleration, and pace, combined with excellent dribbling, shooting, and passing, makes him a formidable offensive threat in various situations.
