In addition to its expenditure reduction plan, RC Lens also aims to: strengthen the link between its training center and the first team. However, Pierre Dréossi warns that it will take time to be fully operational. Explanations.
At RC Lens, training is yes… but not right away
“The club’s project, in the short, medium and long term, is to re-establish the possibility for young players from the training center to join the squad. To do this, we need a bit of work. First, find the right players, train them, make room for these players. We are going to start this project, but it takes a bit of time. Young people will enter the professional group for preparation. Some young people have signed their first professional contract.
The reduction in staff, which is linked to economic problems, is also linked to this new project.
Pierre Dréossi, general manager of RC Lens.
There are loan returns. Will (Still) will train them and we’ll see. This project takes a little time, it is not overnight that we will have eight players from the training center who will play in the first team. In any case, it is a desire. To do this, we will have to work harder and better. The reduction in staff, which is linked to economic problems, is also linked to this new project. »
