Noting that Nemanja Matic had emptied his locker without warning his managers, Stade Rennais reacted in a press release published this Thursday where it denounced the “unacceptable behavior” of its summer recruit who joined London when he had not received one authorization. The former AS Roma and Manchester United player played the appeasement card by publishing a message on social networks and announcing that he was going to return to Brittany to discuss with his employer: “I want to put an end to to speculation and to say that last summer I was honored by the invitation from Stade Rennais to be an important part of an ambitious project which needed a player of my characteristics and my experience. After six months at the club, I can confirm that our club is becoming an exceptional club for all players, especially young people. Unfortunately, through my fault, I was unable to adapt my personal life to my professional life. I was unable to enroll my children in an international school that they had been attending since the beginning of their schooling. That’s why I was away for the last three days, to try to resolve this big problem for me and my family and tomorrow I will be back in Rennes where I will decide the next steps with the club. »
