RC Lens, which remains on three defeats in the last four days of Ligue 1, will have to achieve a result against Stade de Reims this Friday to avoid sinking a little further into doubts and seeing the specter of a crisis arise. sporty.
But beyond the purely accounting and sporting aspect, this meeting against the SDR will have a particular taste for Will Still. Assistant then head coach of the Stade de Reims from July 2022 to May 2024, the Belgian technician will return for the first time to the stadium which made him known to the general public.
An emotional return? Will Still's response has the merit of being clear: “Reims is the club which allowed me to launch into Ligue 1 and which believed in me. I will always be grateful to Reims”, said he confided before specifying that he is not affected by it. “Reims is a great team, it’s a challenge for us, but I don’t have any more emotion than that of playing against my old team.”
Will Still is therefore not in the mood. Careerist (which is not a criticism), the 32-year-old Belgian technician does not seem the type to attach himself to a club. We can say without getting too excited that Still will not be part of Lens for the long term.
