The winter transfer window has not officially opened its doors and RC Lens is already working on several files. The Sang et Or would have a promising goalkeeper and attacker in their sights.
The main issue that RC Lens will have to manage in January is that of the goalkeeper. The Sang et Or are preparing to lose Brice Samba, who should join Stade Rennais in the winter transfer window, and are therefore looking for a goalkeeper to succeed him. If several names have been mentioned near Lens in recent hours, that of Jean Butez returns this Tuesday.
The former LOSC goalkeeper now plays for Royal Antwerp in Belgium. Aged 29, this goalkeeper would also be targeted by Como in Serie A, but it is Lens who would hold the rope in this matter.
But RC Lens is not content with the goalkeeper department in this transfer window, it is also exploring that of the attackers. According to information from FootMercatothe northern leaders would have set their sights on the young Sontje Hansen, aged 22 and former great hope of the Netherlands. Trained at Ajax, this attacker now plays for Nijmegen in the Eredivise, and has a market value estimated at €3.5 million by TransferMarkt. It remains to be seen whether RC Lens will take action. Our colleagues indicate that Premier League and Bundesliga clubs would also be interested.
