Mohamed Amoura in the crosshairs of two European giants

Stade Rennais FC is facing a real risk of losing Mohamed Amoura this summer. The Algerian international, signed for €15 million in 2023 from Union Saint-Gilloise, is now being pursued by two major European clubs.

Why SRFC could lose their striker

Franck Haise and his staff had pinned their hopes on Amoura to bolster Stade Rennais FC’ attack after a difficult 2025-26 season in the Bundesliga, marred by injuries and adaptation issues. The 26-year-old still managed 30 appearances, 8 goals and 3 assists. Numbers that appeal far beyond Stade Rennais FC.

But Wolfsburg, his current club, has changed its stance. After rejecting a €35 million bid from Benfica last summer, the Germans are now open to a transfer. European scouts are circling, with Benfica Lisbon and Everton leading the chase.

Benfica and Everton seize the moment

Amoura’s market value has dropped since his move to Wolfsburg. Benfica, which had already tried its luck last summer, now sees an opportunity. Everton, meanwhile, is closely monitoring the situation. Wolfsburg has yet to receive an official offer, but German club officials expect concrete proposals soon.

If Stade Rennais FC still wants to keep him, they’ll need to move fast. The Breton club had bet on a profile like Amoura’s to energize their attack. But European competition has shifted the odds.
