Kyogo Furuhashi's Struggles at Rennes After Celtic Departure
Kyogo Furuhashi made the bold decision to leave Celtic and join Ligue 1 side Rennes during the winter transfer window, hoping for a fresh challenge and an opportunity to elevate his career. However, just weeks after the move, it’s clear that things have not unfolded the way the Japanese forward had hoped.
Celtic, despite parting with their star striker midway through the season, gave Kyogo the green light to move to Rennes, allowing him the chance to prove himself in a bigger league. Yet, the decision has come with unexpected consequences. Soon after Kyogo’s arrival in France, the manager who had brought him to Rennes, Jorge Sampaoli, was sacked, leaving the forward in a difficult situation. Under the new coach, Habib Beye, Kyogo has struggled to make an impact and has found himself down the pecking order. In fact, he has been an unused substitute in three of the last four games, a sign that he’s yet to convince the new management of his worth.

Reports suggest that Kyogo’s future at Rennes may be in jeopardy, with some even speculating that he could be on his way out during the next transfer window. Justin Favre of Jeunesfooteux pointed out that it wouldn’t be surprising to see Kyogo “pack up and leave” if things don’t improve soon. This possibility has raised doubts about whether Kyogo made the right decision in leaving Celtic for Rennes, a move that was initially meant to offer him more opportunities.
At Celtic Park, Kyogo was adored by the fans, becoming a key figure in their attacking play. His departure in the middle of the season left many Celtic supporters disappointed and uncertain about who would fill his shoes. However, in what seems to be a stroke of luck for the Hoops, Daizen Maeda has stepped up in Kyogo’s absence, scoring at an even better rate and quickly becoming a crucial part of the team. The squad has continued to perform well, showing that life at Celtic goes on despite the loss of their star striker.
While it’s disheartening to see Kyogo struggle at Rennes, it’s important to acknowledge that football is unpredictable, and the path to success can sometimes take unexpected turns. We wish Kyogo the best of luck as he continues his journey, and hopefully, he’ll find a way to turn things around in France. Regardless of how his time at Rennes unfolds, we all hope he gets the chance to represent Japan at the next World Cup, proving that his talent and dedication are still very much alive.
