Gambardella Cup, Stade Rennais - Brest, Sunday, 15:00. At eighteen, Axel Ngando is splitting his time between the Reserve in CFA2 and the Gambardella Cup. A busy agenda for the French-Cameroonese youngster, who know hopes to break through with the Stade Rennais. And follow on the footsteps of his illustrious uncle.
Stade Rennais B 1 - 1 AS Moulins. Trailing for most of the game, the Rennes reserve had to settle for a draw, once again. Having failed to win since over four months, Laurent Huard’s team is swamped, desperately hoping for brighter days.
Reserve, Stade Rennais 5-3 Lorient. Three times defeated since the beginning of the season, the Stade Rennais Reserve won a pleasant victory against Lorient this Saturday, 5 goals to 3. With a hat-trick and an assist to his name, young striker Julienne was the clear attraction in this game.
The young Rennais faced their first disillusion of the season, this afternoon at La Piverdière. The Stade Rennais reserve was indeed surprised on their pitch by Avranches (0-1). Difficult beginnings for Gaëtan Caro and Jonathan Isambart (photo), despite the presence of eight professionals in the squad.
Transfered from Mantes-la-Jolie during the 2010 summer, this young defender from the Paris region is spotted by Stade Rennais when he played twice against Rennes' reserve team during the previous season. Physically powerful, this defender can also play as a midfielder.
Recruited by the Stade Rennais in June 2003 as he played at midfield, Pierre Lemonnier progressively evolved into a defender during his training. Whether it is in centre defence (his favourite position) or on the right flank of the Rennes defence, he convinced his coaches by his perseverance and hard work, even though he wasn’t originally a member of the club’s Academy. Lemonnier was awarded an intern contract in June 2011, with the ambition to make his mark in the Reserve, in CFA2.
Born in Djenné, Mali, Daouda Gérard started playing football in the club from the Rennes suburbs, the Espérance La Bouëxière. After he was spotted by the TA Rennes, his profile attracted the attention of the Stade Rennais, who saw a clear potential in the player. In June 2007, he signed his first licence with Stade Rennes before obtaining an aspirant contract, then an intern contract in June 2011. Next season, the centre back who can also play as a full-back on both flanks will try to (…)
At Stade Rennes since the age of 14, Kévin Beauverger has gone through every stage of at Rennes’ Academy. In 2010-2011, Laurent Huard offered him his first start with the reserve against Carquefou, at the left-back position. This season would be one to forget for him however, since he would spend over 6 months on the side lines with a groin injury. Satisfied with his past performances and believing in his potential ability, the club offered him a two-year intern contract in June 2011 (…)
A goalkeeper of very strong built, Devis Epassy is born in the Parisian region. He was recruited by the Stade Rennais while playing for Paris FC and following the pre-Academy scheme at the INF Clairefontaine. In 2008, he joined the Stade Rennais Academy to continue improving, and signed an intern contract in Summer 2011.
Marked as an up and coming Malian football player, Cheick Fantamady Diarra joined Stade Rennes in Ju;ly 2011. An attacking player scouted during the Junior African Cup of Nations a few months earlier, he will have to prove his ability with Rennes’ Reserve before maybe joining the professional squad.
Playing as a defender, Fabien Boyer has been through several academies before arriving at Stade Rennais. Not kept by Monaco in 2010, the player affirmed himself at Jura Sud, in the CFA, during the 2010-2011 season, showing enough potential to draw the attention of the Stade Rennais scouts. After a trial period, Boyer is therefore arriving in Britanny to first reinforce the Stade Rennes reserve. His mission will be to prove he has the qualities to be considered at a higher level.
A French-Moroccan forward, Yacine Qasmi completed all his training at Paris Saint-Germain, the club where he made his debut at the age of eight. Making his way up to the reserve in Paris, he even appeared with the first team during a Europa League match in December 2010. Finally not retained by the club of the capital, the U21 Moroccan international was recruited as a free agent by Stade rennais. Qasmi reinforces the reserve team in CFA2, with the opportunity to express his qualities and (…)
The son of Michel and the brother of Arthur, Elliot continues the Sorin family’s tradition by wearing the wearing shirt from his younger age. Aged 6, he signed his first licence in Rennes and went on step by step to join the Academy and sign a trainee contract. A centre midfielder, with a good impact at ball recovery despite a modest physical build, Sorin signed an intern contract in April 2011, a few months after he played his first game with the Reserve under Laurent Huard’s management. (…)
Just as Yacine Brahimi, Axel Ngando went through the youth teams at Paris Saint-Germain before he joined the Stade Rennais in June 2007. He started playing for the club in the U14 Federal division (now known as U15 Elite), before improving gradually but steadily. An attack-minded midfielder, the youngster has impressed with his technical ability and the elegance of his attacking play. April 2011 will certainly remain an important date in his memory, since he received the award of the “best (…)
A tough and technically gifted midfielder, Abdoulaye Doucouré is a member of the promising 1993 generation from the Academy. Arrived in Rennes aged fourteen, he soon emerged as one of the club’s best prospects, also making his way into the French youth national teams. At the beginning of the 2010-2011 season, he earned several appearances with the Reserve in CFA, but a bad injury spoiled the rest of his year. As a proof of the huge confidence Stade Rennes has put in him, this didn’t prevent (…)
A Benin-born defensive midfielder, Mathieu Adeniyi never really managed to become a regular with the Reserve during his first spell in Rennes, between 2005 and 2007. He then left the club in June 2007 to join La Vitréenne, before returning to Stade Rennais 3 years later, in Summer 2010. During this season, he played mostly with the third Stade Rennais team, although he was called-up to the CFA team in several occasion to cover for absentees.
If one player has reached a new dimension in 2010-2011, it has to be Dimitri Foulquier. In 2007, he was spotted by Patrick Rampillon, and the Stade Rennais was soon finalising the arrival of the Guadeloupian youngster at the club’s Academy. In three years, he imposed himself in the club’s youth categories, receiving the award for the « best player of the Academy » in 2010. The following season, Foulquier was included in the Reserve squad, and regularly starting at right back, especially (…)
Just as Asamoah Gyan before him, Ghanaian midfielder Kamal Issah Sissoko has received his training ay the Liberty Professional FC (Ghana). In September 2010, he signed his first three years professional contract in the aim to improve his skills and gather a first experience in professional football. A centre midfielder, he was quick to show real qualities, especially by his ability to rush forward and a good passing ability. A very good listener, he was one of the rare satisfactions in the (…)
Born in Laval, Quentin Rouger joined the Stade Rennais FC Academy in June 2005. Over the years, he became one of the club’s best rated youngsters. After starting playing with the Reserve in February 2009, he was also honoured with the “Academy’s Best Player” Award. An award which illustrious players such as Mikaël Silvestre or Sylvain Wiltord had received before him. After signing a contract as an intern, the attacking-midfielder became a regular member of the Reserve, despite an occasional (…)
