Naouirou gives his first impressions. « I'm glad it's going to happen, because Stade Rennais is a famous club, and they've produced a lot of great players. The team is ambitious, and so am I. I'm looking forward to discovering Roazhon Park and its atmosphere. I've never been there, but having seen matches on TV, it looks very nice. I know Arnaud Kalimuendo, we played together in the French youth teams. This is my first adventure in France, and I can't wait to get started. I've got a lot of energy to give ».
