If RC Lens has not yet signed a big deal on the Mercato this summer, Pierre Dréossi continues to work with the hope of bringing back a solid attacker in Will Still. As reported by L’Equipe, the lucky one could be… Habib Diallo, who left RC Strasbourg a year ago to join Al-Shabab (Saudi Arabia).
Al-Shabab negotiates on its terms
Like RCSA, who tried their luck for the 29-year-old Senegalese striker, the Blood and Gold are said to have drawn a loan offer with an option to buy “on easily achievable terms” to recover Diallo. On the Saudi club’s side, they have not yet said yes but negotiations are underway.
Although he is coming off a rather complicated season in the Saudi Pro League (5 goals in 30 games), Al-Shabab has no intention of giving any gifts to Ligue 1 clubs for Habib Diallo. Racing has been warned.

To sum up
After RC Strasbourg, RC Lens is now trying its luck for Habib Diallo (Al-Shabab, 29 years old). The Blood and Gold are trying to get the Senegalese player on loan but the two clubs are slow to agree on the purchase option.
