Ouest-France reported that Ludovic Blas was willing to join FC Nantes on loan for the remainder of the season, but Rennes declined to loan the playmaker to them.

Nantes approached their former player, 28-year-old French midfielder Ludovic Blas, in recent days in their search for an experienced offensive reinforcement during the winter transfer window. According to Ouest-France, the attempt to bring the Rennes player back to the club was not successful. The move failed due to complex contractual situations and a lack of openness from Rennes. Blas, a former France U20 international, has a contract with Rennes until June 30, 2027, and joined the club in July 2023. In the current Ligue 1 season, he has made 18 appearances, scoring 3 goals and providing 2 assists. His current Transfermarkt market value is €15.00m.
