A few hours after the cancellation of the recruitment of Pau Lopez, RC Lens is once again looking for a goalkeeper. And according to the Portuguese press, the Lensois leaders could well find what they are looking for with Sporting CP. Explanations.
Vladan Kovacevic resorts to Pau Lopez?
If the blow is difficult to absorb, RC Lens has no choice but to bounce back. While Paul Lopez was expected at training this Thursday, the 30-year-old Spanish goalkeeper will ultimately not wear the Lens jersey this season. The fault lies with the Girona club, where he is currently on loan, who refused to release the player before January 29, the date of the end of the league phase of the Champions League. Faced with this request, as unexpected as it was intangible, Lens decided to backtrack and cancel their deal with OM.

And according to Portuguese journalist Bruno Andrade, who collaborates in particular with CNN, RC Lens would have checked the name of Vladan KovacevicFranco Israel’s current understudy at Sporting CP. Recruited last summer, the Bosnian goalkeeper would be available for a loan.
-Already having an offer from Poland, where he has already played for three seasons, the native of Banja Luka is currently under consideration. It remains to be seen whether RC Lens will actually enter the race for his signature. To be continued.
