While his midfield friend Cheick Doucouré is preparing to join Crystal Palace, will Seko Fofana leave Lens this summer, two years from the end of his contract? A few days ago, La Voix du Nord explained that the Franco-Ivorian midfielder could finally stay in Artois.
On the sidelines of Lens’ victory against Valenciennes (3-0) on Friday in a friendly match, the 27-year-old player, courted by PSG, OM and OL, in addition to various European clubs, was asked about its future and took care to leave all doors open.
“Everything is possible”
“I am at RC Lens. I am very happy to be here, to be able to train, to progress in this preparation. Afterwards, everything is possible. I take advantage. I take everything I have to take. We are in the transfer window period, there is a lot of reflection. One day you say you stay, the other you are going to leave. You don’t really know. I’m very calm about that.”said Seko Fofana in remarks reported by The Team.
Relaunched on his football desires, the Ivorian international (4 caps, 1 goal) continued: “To have fun every day. What I do with the club. It can be here or elsewhere. We all have desires, ambition. Why not qualify for a European Cup, or play it with a another club. The club knows what I want. These are things I keep to myself. We’ll see what happens next.”
And to conclude: “As long as I wear this jersey, I will be Lensois”. Enough to feed the soap opera for a few more weeks…
