Rennes coach Julien Stephan admits Edouard Mendy is on his way to Chelsea.
Stephan says Rennes are now moving on to finding a replacement for departing goalkeeper.
"We're looking for a goalkeeper," he stated yesterday.
"It's no secret that Edou (Edouard Mendy) will certainly leave us and go to Chelsea. So in this position we need to get someone back very quickly. There are discussions but nothing definitive."
Mendy will move to Chelsea for a fee of €25-30m.
