Stade Rennais FC is at the centre of several developments both on and off the pitch as the 2026-2027 season progresses. Young midfielder Djaoui Cissé is being monitored by Sunderland according to Homme Du Match, and the club has learned the dates for its November Ligue 1 fixtures.
What is Sunderland's interest in Djaoui Cissé?
Homme Du Match reports that English club Sunderland is keeping an eye on Stade Rennais FC's young midfielder Djaoui Cissé. The interest is for a potential move in 2027, but no official offer has been made at this stage. The player, a French U21 international, recently extended his contract until June 2030 and changed agents to join Sport Cover.
Cissé impressed at the 2025 U21 European Championship, scoring three goals in four matches. His continued development is attracting attention, especially as Strasbourg and Juventus had already shown interest in him during the last summer transfer window. Stade Rennais FC could therefore secure a significant sale in the future, but nothing is confirmed yet. The player remains a key part of the Stade Rennais FC squad.
What is Stade Rennais's schedule for November?
The Professional Football League has announced the kick-off times for Ligue 1 matchdays 10, 11, and 12 for Stade Rennais FC. The club will play three matches in November, as indicated on the club's official website. The run starts with a home game against LOSC at Roazhon Park on November 8th at 3:00 PM.
The Rouge et Noir will then travel to the Stade du Moustoir to face FC Lorient on November 22nd at 5:15 PM. The month concludes with a trip to the Stadium de Toulouse to play TFC on November 29th, also at 5:15 PM. You can check the full schedule on our fixtures page.
