Lecce are poised to bid farewell to Pongracic.
The Croatian defender, one of the pivotal figures in securing their survival last season, is virtually a Rennes player now.
Notably, Pongracic has not even been included in the squad list for the training retreat.
According to Lecce’s sporting director, Pantaleo Corvino, the club will generate a significant profit from this transfer.
Corvino expressed his delight, stating via the club’s official channels, “This is a remarkable financial gain for Lecce.”
He further added, “Such transactions are vital for the club’s long-term sustainability and growth.”
Rennes have been in negotiations with Lecce for weeks, and the deal is now in its final stages.
As things stand, Lecce are expected to receive a substantial fee for the defender.
This transfer continues Corvino’s reputation for securing profitable deals in the transfer market.
Pongracic’s departure will mark another well-executed move for the Lecce management team.
Fans will be eager to see how the club reinvests the funds into strengthening the squad.
