Club Brugge Sign Faitout Maouassa
Faitout Maouassa to Provide Quality and Depth on the Left
Maouassa joins Club Brugge to provide depth on the Belgian team’s left-wing. Primarily a left-back, the versatile Frenchman is capable of playing in any position on the left side.
Maoaussa’s future at Rennes has always been in doubt this season. He was in the final year of his contract and the French side were keen on moving Maouassa this summer rather than losing him on a free transfer.
He started his journey in the lower leagues of French football before joining Nancy’s academy in 2013. Maouassa made his debut for the reserves squad in 2015 after graduating from the youth academy. The 23-year-old made his professional debut a year later in Ligue 2.
The Frenchman made 24 appearances and scored four goals in two seasons with the club. Maouassa’s impressive performances saw him move to Rennes in 2017. After starting out in the reserve team, the Frenchman established himself as an important rotation player. Maouassa spent three seasons with Rennes, making 80 appearances and scoring three goals.
