Racing Club de Lens will take on Olympique Lyonnais this Sunday to close the fourth day of Ligue 1. An important match for the Blood and Gold who must get back to winning ways. Will Still spoke before the match about the physical condition of his recent injuries, including Kevin Danso.
This Sunday, Racing Club de Lens wants to get back on the winning track. After a great start to the season, the Blood and Gold experienced a big disappointment on the pitch at Panathinaikos. Eliminated by the Greeks, Will Still’s men will not play in the European Cup. Three days later, the Artésiens picked up a precious point on the pitch at AS Monaco before the break.
This draw, Brice Samba’s teammates obtained it without a defensive leader, Kevin Danso. The Austrian, who ultimately stayed in Lens this summer, is not yet ready to return to the field. Although he has resumed collective training, Will Still declared that the central defender would miss his team’s next two matches.
Kevin Danso is not the only player mentioned by Will Still when the Belgian took stock of the absences and presences of the Lens collective. Anass Zaroury, who arrived this summer from Burnley and who played in the Blood and Gold’s matches against Brest and Monaco, is “ too fair “to challenge OL according to Will Still. Neil El Aynaoui, sidelined since his medical at AS Monaco revealed a weak knee, could be back on Sunday.
