The Racing Club in Strasbourg announced the arrival of 19-year-old Danish defender Lucas Hogsberg from FC Nordsjælland. This transfer, with an estimated value of €15 million excluding bonuses, seals a five-season contract for the player, which will evolve into a central defender. Hogsberg, a Danish international with two selections, spent his entire football career in the Danish club, where he started at the age of three and played his first professional match at 16 years. Last season he moved to Danish Supreliga.

This announcement was made by the club between two friendly games against Mainz, which will take place this week. In addition to the arrival of Hogsberg, Racing also unveiled its composition for the next friendly match against Mainz, which will take place at the Mewa Arena. The initial training includes Penders, Samuels-Smith, Sylla, Sarr, Barco, Mwanga, Lemaréchal, El Mourabet, Amo-Ameyew, Panichelli and Emegha.

The bench will be composed of Johnsson, Divine, Marshal, Cisse, Bakwa and Mara. This composition reflects the club’s preparation before the coming season and its intention to strengthen its staff with new talents such as Lucas Hogsberg. The team hopes to benefit from this new recruit to improve its defensive strength and achieve its sporting goals.
