The training center of Stade Rennais, the new nursery for the French national football team
The Stade Rennais training center showcases three monumental statues symbolizing its dual mission of developing professional footballers and well-rounded citizens. With its 50th anniversary approaching in 2027, the academy's reputation has been highlighted by the selection of seven players trained at Rennes by Zinédine Zidane for the French national team. This achievement has brought pride to the club, especially when six former academy players started in a recent match against Belgium. The French team is set to face Italy and Turkey in the upcoming Nations League matches.
