For the first match of the calendar year, RC Lens will advance in a very small committee against Toulouse, Sunday (3 p.m.). A match for which Will Still will be deprived of eight players, including Brice Samba who no longer wishes to play for the club.
Medina blocked in Argentina!
“Martin (Satriano) and Rémy (Labeau Lascary) remain unavailable due to their crusaders. Wes (Wesley Saïd) is still out due to an ischio injury. Neil (El Aynaoui) hurt his hamstring and will have an exam at 5 p.m. He will not be in the group on Sunday. Ruben (Aguilar) returned to collective training, but as a wildcard. He cannot yet object. Fac (Facundo) Medina is still in Argentina for personal reasons. Brice (Samba) has made it known that he does not want to leave the club and will not be in the group. » Absences to which must be added that of Abdukodir Khusanov, suspended.
A headache for Will Still
