Valentin Rongier (31), who recently transferred from Olympique de Marseille to Stade Rennais, voiced his disappointment over how Marseille handled his departure. In an interview with Le Carré, he stated, “You can clearly say there was a lack of respect,” reflecting on his six-year tenure at the club. During his time at Marseille, Rongier made 196 appearances, scored six goals, and provided 11 assists, often taking on the role of captain. He rejected a contract extension last June, leading to his move to Stade Rennais, where he has signed a three-year contract. Despite the challenges of his departure, Rongier remains optimistic, attributing his resilience to personal growth and family support.
