Despite Neil El Aynaoui’s potential agreement with AS Rome, RC Lens, through Jean-Louis Leca and Joseph Oughourlian, resists the pressure of the Italian team to keep the player. The objective is to make this Franco-Moroccan terrain a key element of Pierre Sage’s team for the coming season. This situation is made difficult by Neil El Aynaoui’s determination to join AS Rome during the current mercato. A possible arrival of Matthieu Udol from FC Metz could also complicate the plans of RC Lens, as another track envisaged by Jean-Louis Leca seems to be compromised.

According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the LOSC finally beat RC Lens in the race for the signature of 24-year-old Portuguese winger Felix Correia. This operation, estimated at around €7 million, represents a major financial blow for Lille. Félix Correiia, who was trained at the Sporting CP, Manchester City and the Juventus Turin, had two good seasons in Liga Portugal with Gil Vicente, where he scored 9 goals and delivered 4 assists in the last season.

The arrival of Felix Correia raises questions about the future of RC Lens, which may regret not having managed to recruit him. The player, after leaving the prestigious European academies, proved his talent in Liga Portugal, making it a potential asset for the LOSC. This highlights the fierce competition between clubs for the best talent, and the importance of the recruitment strategy to ensure the sustainability of teams.
