Zapping But! Football Club RC Lens: who is the Sang et Or’s best summer recruit?
Monaco, to go higher
Metz will really get a great deal when it comes to transferring Georges Mikautadze, who the Lorraine club bought from Ajax for €13 million a year after selling him for €15 million. The Georgian is shining at the Euro and his stock is skyrocketing. The bidding should therefore also go up.
Tailored for OM, but it’s riskier
Some media outlets claim that “Mikau” has already reached an agreement with Monaco. In my opinion, this would be a good choice, the one that offers the most guarantees to the striker. He would discover the Champions League, he would have a choice place in a club that will part ways with Ben Yedder and where Balogun has not managed to establish himself. At 23, the choice of the heart would perhaps be for him to return to Lyon, his training club, but since Lacazette is expected to stay, it seems risky to me. Lens could be a good springboard, with more assurance of playing, but it seems to me that the Georgian is already ready to go higher. OM could suit him well, with his qualities, his character, his grinta. All these challenges have their advantages and disadvantages. In fact, in his place, I would go where I would feel most wanted. To avoid what happened at Ajax last year.”

RC Lens, similar values
Georges Mikautadze is THE player who is most talked about at the start of the Mercato and that is quite legitimate. Brilliant at the Euro with his selection, the Georgian is coming off a huge season in statistical terms (13 goals and 4 assists in 20 L1 matches) after his surprising return to FC Metz. In Lorraine, the 23-year-old was once again able to demonstrate the full range of the modern attacker: efficiency, combativeness, altruism and endurance. These qualities correspond in every way to the values of RC Lens, which would not yet be completely ready to recruit him this summer.
Make us forget the Wahi flop
If his price (€30 million?) could explode again given his career in Germany, the Sang et Or would be ready to pay a big check to forget the flop Elye Wahi, who should bring in a small jackpot in the transfer window. In Artois, the former OL striker could thus thicken up in a family club, without too much pressure. And we have no doubt for a second that his warrior character would not take long before being adopted by the public connoisseur of Bollaert.

To sum up
Georges Mikautadze is one of the big players at the start of the summer transfer window. His signing has been announced in Monaco, but the Georgian is also in demand by Lens, OM and OL, among others. What is the best choice for him? This is our debate.
