Papakouli Diop, 20 year-old young Senegalese, arrived in Brittany in 2004 after playing a few years in his native country. Endowed with strong athletic potential and technical skills, Diop made Landry Chauvin and his reserve team happy during a few years before joining the professional squad in 2006. After his debut with the first team during the first round of Ligue 1, Papakouli is finally sent out on loan to Tours FC, in Ligue 2, to gain more top level playtime. Not really used at the start of the season, then badly injured, he made an average season with his new club. Stade Rennais then decided not to extend his contract and let him go free after the 2006-2007 season. The young Senegalese player then decided to stay in Tours, and 6 months later left for Spain.
