Alexander Tettey

Publié le 17 July 2002 à 00h35 by Bastien

His transfer was a long soap opera in summer 2009. Alexander Tettey was highly rated by Pierre Dréossi and Frederic Antonetti, before eventually signing after two months of negotiations. A Norwegian international with Ghanaian origins, he was recruited as a substitute to Stéphane M’Bia. An essential man in Rosenborg’s midfield, Tettey arrived in Brittany with a mission to hold the same role (or even more) in Rennes. High hopes were placed on him, but the opening stages of his first season with Rennes were plagued with injuries, and the player struggled to make his way into the first team, despite obvious qualities.
