Coach Baup hints at signings in the New Year
Nantes manager Elie Baup has revealed his interest in West Ham United midfielder Julien Faubert.
France international Faubert recently admitted that he is open to a return to his homeland in the January transfer window, after stressing his need to play regularly.
And Baup has confirmed Faubert is among a number of targets, as he looks to rework his squad for the second half of the Ligue 1 campaign.
He told
L'Equipe: "We can improve in attack. There are names rumoured and clubs like Bordeaux and Nancy want to sell or loan players.
"Bordeaux's Gabriel Obertan, why not? There are Nancy's Marc-Antoine Fortune and Issiar Dia too. And why not Julien Faubert?
"At first, we have to work to reduce the group, otherwise I will be forced to work a different way. I will ask to find solutions."
