FC Nantes is gearing up for a busy summer with the return of five loaned players. The Nantes management must quickly handle these cases before the transfer window opens. Among them is Alban Lafont, who spent the season at Panathinaikos and will not remain with the club. At 27 years old, his contract expires in a year, and FC Nantes must consider a sale to avoid losing him for free in 2027. Jean-Kévin Duverne, after a season in Ligue 2, will not be retained, but his versatile profile could interest other clubs. Lamine Diack, having had a tough season in Switzerland, returns without strong commercial arguments. Malang Gomes, after a nearly blank season at Le Mans, will also not be kept, and a new loan seems the most likely outcome. Finally, Yassine Benhattab, who showed promise at Reims, could be a valuable asset for FC Nantes in Ligue 2, with two years remaining on his contract. The upcoming decisions will be crucial for the team's rebuilding.
