A short season and then he’s gone. Enzo Le Fée is already leaving Stade Rennais where he will have only played 35 matches in all competitions (5 assists). Recruited last summer in Lorient in exchange for a check for €20 million, the 24-year-old midfielder is this time the subject of a transfer estimated at €23 million to join Serie A. The Breton has just signed for AS Roma during this summer transfer window. He signs for 5 years. The news has just been made official.
“AS Roma is pleased to welcome Enzo Le Fée. The French footballer born in 2000, who will strengthen the midfield, is originally from Rennes and grew up in Lorient, where he was called up to the national teams at the under-20, 21 and 23 level. Despite his young age, thanks to his vision of the game, his dynamism and the skill demonstrated on set pieces, Enzo Le Fée has established himself among the most interesting players on the European football scene, accumulating over 130 appearances in Ligue 1.“, reveals the press release of the Italian club. The Fairy becomes the first official recruit of the summer for Roma, who also extended the contract of its coach, Daniele De Rossi.
The Fairy and Ghisolfi know each other well
The player was not predestined at the start. Stade Rennais was counting on him for the coming season, aware that he had not yet reached his full potential. As we explained to you, the transfer market, and in particular the offers from other clubs, changed the situation. It was still necessary to agree on the compensation to be paid. Under the leadership of its new sporting director, the Frenchman Florent Ghisolfi, the Giallorossi finally got what they wanted after several attempts.
The two men know each other very well since Ghisolfi was Mickaël Landreau’s assistant when he coached FC Lorient (2017-2019). It was during this period that Le Fée made his first professional appearances. The Merlus were then in Ligue 2. He has grown a lot since then and is preparing to move up a gear in one of the best clubs in Serie A. The competition will be much tougher than in Rennes with the presence of Bove, Aouar and the captain, Lorenzo Pellegrini.
