Renewed contract for Doku at Rennes; club adds €70 million release clause.

The French Ligue 1 club Rennes has renewed the contract of defender Doku, who is currently on loan from Ajax. The new deal will see Doku remain with Rennes until June 2024.

Doku's signing was one of the most exciting signings in recent years for Rennes, and his performance in the Premier League last season saw him earn a move to Amsterdam. However, he struggled to make an impact in the Eredivisie and was eventually sold back to Rennes for a fee believed to be around €6m.

Despite this setback, Doku has been a key player for Rennes this season, playing in all but two league games as they sit second in the table. His performances have earned him praise from fans and critics alike, and his renewed contract shows that Rennes are happy with his contribution to the team.

In addition to his defensive duties, Doku has also shown his versatility by playing in various positions throughout the game. He has even taken on the role of captain during matches when needed, which speaks volumes about his leadership skills.

With the added financial security of his new contract, Doku can focus on improving his form and helping Rennes push for success in the coming seasons. It remains to be seen how much longer he will stay at Rennes, but it seems likely that he will be part of the team for many more years to come.
