On the social network X, journalist Sebastien Vidal reports that 23-year-old attacking midfielder Yassine Benhatab is highly likely to leave French club Nantes this summer. Vidal also reports that the decision for Yassine Benhatab to leave has already been made and that the main contender to sign him is Krasnodar. The transfer of the Algerian midfielder to the Russian club could become one of the next deals for Nantes in the current summer transfer window.

According to Dzfoot, Krasnodar has a concrete interest in Nantes winger Yassine Benhattab and has already taken specific actions to sign him. The source reported that Benhattab's absence from Nantes' squad for the last friendly match against Le Mans is related to ongoing negotiations about his possible transfer.

Yassine Benhattab, a 23-year-old French and Algerian right winger, is the subject of interest from clubs outside of France. Last winter, he was on loan at Stade de Reims from FC Nantes with a €5 million purchase option. While a few French clubs made inquiries in recent weeks but did not proceed further and Dutch side FC Utrecht showed significant interest but did not submit an offer, his situation is developing in Russia. FK Krasnodar, one of the leading teams in the Russian championship, has taken a specific action. The club has made an offer exceeding €3 million for Benhattab, and its management is very confident that the transfer will be completed soon. His contract with FC Nantes runs until June 30, 2028. His valuation on Transfermarkt is currently €2.00m. Schalke 04, Blackburn Rovers, and Hull City are other clubs that have been associated with the player.
