Djaoui Cissé, a 22-year-old French and Malian midfielder for Stade Rennes who has not yet played this season, received an approach from Juventus at the end of the transfer window. According to information from Footmercato, the French U21 international, who has 8 caps and 4 goals for the team, refused the proposal from the Turin club and decided to stay at Stade Rennais.
He joined Stade Rennais in July 2024 and has four years remaining on his contract. Several other clubs including Eintracht Frankfurt, Strasbourg, and Fulham have recently been linked with the player. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €10.00m. In April 2026, it was reported that an offer exceeding €20 million might be accepted, while Rennes's valuation was reportedly set at 'over €30 million' in August 2025.
