With his seven goals and three assists in just twelve Ligue 2 matches with Rodez Aveyron football, the 25-year-old striker, having already experienced Ligue 1 several years ago, has apparently already awakened the appetites of other clubs.
Transfer window rumors are already in season a month and a half before the official opening of the winter transfer window! Thus, the high-flying performances of the man whom the Raf recruitment unit went to Slovenia, at FC Kopper, this summer, are causing a lot of ink to flow. L1 clubs like Le Havre, Reims where Timothé Nkada played 8 elite matches between 2019 and 2020, Nantes and Saint-Étienne are mentioned here and there.
Far from being able to confirm this, insistent eyes are nevertheless turned towards the man whose playing intelligence and efficiency undeniably support a Raf team currently 12th in Ligue 2 and remaining in six matches without a setback in the league. Thus, according to our information, several requests for information have reached the Place de la Cité in Rodez, the club’s headquarters. However, the identity of the clubs potentially purchasing the player under contract until 2027 in Aveyron has not been filtered at this time.
