Looking for a goalkeeper to replace Alban Lafont who has a month to find a club, FC Nantes has set his sights on a young doorman.
Mercato FC Nantes: Who is Hugo Barbet?
Hugo Barbet is a 21-year-old goalkeeper who joined the U16s of En Avant Guingamp to start his career. Last season, the French goalkeeper was loaned to Bastia-Borgo, a National 1 club, which was relegated to National 2. Hugo Barbet played 29 games with the Corsican club and conceded 53 goals.
After his time in Corsica, he was free of any contract, and FC Nantes decided to sign him, according to information fromHit West. But Barbet was signed in the reserve team in order to compete with Lucas Bonelli, goalkeeper of the Nantes reserve. Hugo Barbet is also a French international hopeful, he who played 2 games with the U18s and 6 games with the U20s.
Radio Hit West reveals this Wednesday that FC Nantes will sign the 21-year-old goalkeeper for a period of 2 years. His medical visit went well and Hugo Barbet will have the opportunity to move into the pro group.
One of the first transfers from the Nantes transfer window
Not very active since the start of the transfer window in terms of arrivals, FC Nantes is finally recruiting a player during this transfer window, with Hugo Barbet. The only two formalizations of this summer transfer window for Nantes being Andy Delort et Mostafa Mohamed (who were both on loan this season at FC Nantes). The Canaries will therefore be able to formalize the arrival of a new player within the club. Despite the absence of new signings, FC Nantes still managed to extend Marcus Coco until 2025.
Unfortunately for the supporters, the Yellow and Green club is more active in terms of departures. And a departure does not please the Canaries at all, that of Ludovic Blas who will go to the Rennes rival. The potential departure fromAlban Lafont could also hurt the club which would lose two of its best players.
