Ghanaian midfielder Kamaldeen Sulemana has joined French side Rennes in a €15m (£13m/$18m) fee plus add ons from FC Nordsaelland.

The 19 year old opted to sign for Rennes despite previously being linked to Manchester United and Ajax.

The skillful winger’s move to the French Ligue 1 side was officially unveiled on Friday after passing his medicals.

Sulemana is believed to have signed a five-year contract becoming the fourth player from Ghana to feature for Rennes after John Mensah, Asamoah Gyan, and John Boye.

Kamaldeen expressed his delight after penning a deal to the  French Ligue 1 side:

“I am very happy to join Stade Rennais FC, a very good French club. The project meets my expectations. The Ligue 1 Uber Eats is one of the best leagues in Europe,” Sulemana told the club’s official website.

“There is a very good team in Rennes, a lot of talent. I know the club is famous for its training. For a young player like me, this is the best choice for progress.

“I have come to help the team achieve their goals. It is a great challenge to take up.”
