FC Nantes continues to reshape its workforce under the Luis Castro era, and the goalkeeper post is already speaking a lot. In parallel with the vagueness surrounding the future of Alban Lafont, the Canaries formalized the arrival of Alexis Mirbach, a young porter of 20 years from FC Metz.
French international in the youth categories, Mirbach signed up until 2028 with the yellow and green. A signature that occurs while Lafont, two years before the end of his contract, is pushed towards the exit.
Luis Castro maintains the suspense on the hierarchy
Asked at a press conference, Luis Castro refused to decide publicly. “We have four guards right now. We're going to look at the four, see how they work, “he said, relayed by Ouest-France. The Portuguese coach therefore leaves doubt about the future hierarchy at the post, while Lafont still participated in the takeover.
A post in total reconstruction in Nantes
Last season, Kombouaré had dismissed Lafont in favor of Anthony Lopes, who came free after his departure from Lyon. Lopes, now tracked by Brest, no longer seems in the Nantes plans. With Mirbach, FC Nantes is focusing on the future while maintaining short -term open competition. The goalkeeper position will be one of the major summer sites.
