Alidu Seidu one of the best players in his position - Stade Rennais Technical Director

Published on: 29 January 2024

Stade Rennais Technical Director Florian Maurice says Ghana defender Alidu Seidu is one of the best players in his position after he joined the club.

Stade Rennais Technical Director Florian Maurice lauds Ghanaian defender Alidu Seidu as one of the premier players in his position following the player’s arrival at the club.

Maurice notes Alidu’s swift acclimatization to the French top flight since his debut a few seasons ago.

The versatile 23-year-old completed a transfer valued at around €11 million from fellow Ligue 1 side Clermont Foot.

After undergoing mandatory medical checks post his return from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where his playing time was limited, Seidu has committed to a four-year contract extending until 2028.

“He's a player who's been identified for some time, who's been proving himself at Clermont for a few years now, with an incredible mentality and great leadership. He adapted very quickly to Ligue 1 and is one of the best in his position,” Florian Maurice told the club’s official website.

“We always hope that things work out when we recruit, but in any case, he has what it takes to become a successful player for Stade Rennais.”
