The situation at Rennes is spiraling quickly. After rumors of internal unrest involving senior players like Samba and Fofana, head coach Habib Beye is now under serious threat, according to Foot Mercato. What started as a season of ambition is turning into a complete fiasco.
Beye is facing intense pressure. Poor performances, lack of inspiration, and growing doubts over his tactical choices have pushed the club to a breaking point. The 2-2 draw at home against Auxerre — met with boos at Roazhon Park — may have been the final straw.
From High Hopes to Freefall
It all began so well. Rennes opened the season with a statement win over Marseille, fueling hopes of a strong campaign. But the momentum evaporated quickly. A controversial win against Lyon in Week 4 masked deeper cracks, and since then, the team has stalled.
Four consecutive draws against modest opponents, including failure to defeat a 10-man Lens for over 90 minutes, have sent Rennes tumbling down the table. Despite a favorable schedule, they now sit in 9th place, far below expectations.
Board Already Seeking a Replacement
Criticism of Beye is mounting. His choices are questioned, the dressing room appears divided, and patience at the top is running out. Club president Guillaume Cerutti, present against Auxerre, reportedly left baffled by the team’s inability to close out games.
Behind the scenes, discussions have already started about finding a new coach. If results don’t change immediately, Habib Beye could be the first major casualty of a Rennes season rapidly sinking into chaos.
