Quentin Merlin (born 16 May 2002) is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for Ligue 1 club Nantes.
Club Career
In January 2021, Merlin was selected by Nantes manager Raymond Domenech several times in the professional squad. He eventually made his professional debut for Nantes on 10 February 2021, coming on as a half-time substitute for Ludovic Blas in a 4–2 Coupe de France loss to Lens.
Ironically, the manager who selected Merlin for the game was not on the bench as the young player entered the field, Domenech having been tested positive for COVID-19, and eventually learning he had been fired right after the Lens game.Antoine Kombouare succeeded him in the manager position.
On 19 March 2021, Merlin signed his first professional contract with Nantes.
