Are we heading towards a solution in the Brice Samba case? While Lens has formalized the arrival on loan with option to purchase of Pau Lopez, the way seems clear for the French international (30 years old), courted by Rennes, to leave the North where he has been playing since 2022. According to our information , the medical examination is underway for the French goalkeeper, who must join Stade Rennais. He is currently making this visit to Paris.
The file is not yet completely completed, since there are still a few details to be resolved between the two clubs. But a total agreement is imminent between Lens and Rennes, which would put an end to long negotiations.

Transfer paused…then relevant again
Stade Rennais has never hidden itself, it has made Brice Samba a priority for this winter transfer window for several weeks. However, nothing was simple in this matter, leading to an incredible soap opera for the guardians of the Sang et Or.
Initially well launched, the transfer was put on hold by RC Lens, as revealed by RMC Sport last weekend, due to Rennes' “communication policy”, in particular its management. But negotiations have finally resumed at full speed and in the right direction between the two clubs, now close to finding a positive outcome to this issue which will have animated a large part of the start of the transfer window.
