French Ligue 1 side Rennes have stepped up their efforts to sign Belgium winger Jeremy Doku from Belgium giants Anderlecht.

The French club had an initial offer knocked back by Anderlecht as it did not meet their valuation if their prized asset.

As initially reported by Foot Mercato, Rennes are in final stages of talks with Anderlecht over the possible signing of 18-year-old Belgian attacker Jérémy Doku.

After an initial offer was rejected on Friday, SRFC went back with a bid worth €25m plus bonuses.

This was enough to convince Anderlecht of the seriousness of SRFC’s intent.

Ouest-France now reporting that the Belgian club’s president, Wouter Vandenhaute, has arrived in France via plane this afternoon to conclude negotiations with the Brittany club for the sale of the teenage starlet.

The 18 year old winger was born in Belgium to Ghanaian parents and was heavily pursued by Ghana only to make his debut for Belgium last month.
