Returns to Strasbourg

Sylla will return to parent club Strasbourg following the conclusion of his loan spell at Nantes.

Analysis: Sylla made just two Ligue 1 appearances across 64 minutes for Nantes in a limited role, having also made one appearance for Strasbourg during the campaign. Sylla had previously been a key figure for Strasbourg across two strong seasons, making 22 and 21 league starts in 2022/23 and 2023/24 respectively, and now heads back to the club where his future will be assessed heading into the 2026/27 season.
