As the current top scorer in Ligue 1, Rennes' 26-year-old French striker Estéban Lepaul is attracting attention from several European clubs ahead of the summer transfer window. Atlético Madrid and Naples are among the teams interested in the forward. In response to the growing interest, Rennes is reportedly planning to offer Lepaul a contract extension that includes a salary increase to ensure he remains at the club. Lepaul joined Rennes from Angers in August 2025 for a reported fee of €13.5 million plus bonuses, and his current contract runs until 2029. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €20 million.
