The rest of the squad is on a training camp in La Baule. Mohamed had not communicated with the club, prompting Nantes to send a daily letter informing him he would not be paid. He will now train with the reserve team (National 3) while the club seeks a transfer. However, no offers have been received, and Mohamed is entering the final year of his contract. Nantes, recently relegated to Ligue 2, no longer considers him part of their plans.
