Ghana international Alidu Seidu has officially written his name into the history books after making his 100th Ligue 1 appearance during Stade Rennais’ clash with Lens on Saturday.

Alidu Seidu celebrates his 100th Ligue 1 appearance for Rennes, joining an elite Ghanaian club.
The versatile defender becomes only the 9th Ghanaian player to reach the century mark in France’s top division — a milestone that cements his growing reputation in European football.
A Century of Consistency in Ligue 1
Seidu’s journey to 100 appearances reflects discipline, resilience, and steady growth. Since arriving in France, the former Ghana Premier League product has developed into one of the most reliable Ghanaian defenders abroad.
Known for his tactical intelligence, pace, and ability to operate across the backline, Seidu has featured prominently for both Clermont Foot and now Rennes, adapting seamlessly to the demands of Ligue 1.
Reaching 100 games in one of Europe’s top five leagues is no small feat. It is a testament to durability, professionalism, and consistent top-level performances.
Joining an Elite Ghanaian Group
By hitting this milestone, Seidu joins a distinguished list of Ghanaian internationals who have made significant impacts in French football. Over the years, Ghanaian players have left their mark in Ligue 1, showcasing the country’s deep footballing pedigree.
Seidu’s achievement reinforces Ghana’s strong footprint in Europe and further strengthens the legacy of Black Stars players excelling abroad.
Big Boost for the Black Stars
For the CAF-recognized football powerhouse Ghana, Seidu’s consistency in Ligue 1 is a massive plus ahead of upcoming international assignments. His experience against elite opposition week in and week out adds valuable depth and maturity to the Black Stars defensive setup.
As reported in previous Ghana news updates, Ghanaian players competing in Europe’s top leagues continue to raise the country’s profile globally.
The Journey Continues
At just 24, Seidu still has his prime years ahead of him. The 100-game milestone may be historic, but it could also be just the beginning of a long and decorated Ligue 1 career.
With Rennes pushing for strong domestic and European campaigns, Seidu’s experience and versatility will remain crucial.
