Stade Rennais FC are set to lose defensive cover with Cyril Jeunechamp on the verge of joining OGC Nice next week.
Versatility
"Rennes and Nice reached an agreement over Cyril Jeunechamp, who will sign an 18-month contract early next week," Nice said in a statement. "His versatility allows him to play as a full-back or in midfield and he will be an important asset." The 31-year-old has featured in five Ligue 1 games this season and three more in the UEFA Cup. Nice have taken advantage of Ligue 1 rules that allow each club one signing outside the transfer window.
