The Ghanaian defender has signed a contract with the French Ligue 1 side until June 2028.
The 23-year-old made 89 appearances for the Breton side helping them secure promotion from Ligue 2 at the end 2020 – 2021 Season.
Speaking to the club’s website, he underscored how the move would help him realize his personal and professional ambitions: “Stade Rennais is a great club, this is a great privilege for me. I am a player who does not like to lose, I am combative, I give everything for my colleagues and I am always looking for progression.”
“I am very close to Kamaldeen Sulemana, and I get along very well with Christopher Wooh. The rest of the players, I’ve faced them in Ligue 1, I’m sure we will get on well in the locker room.”
