RC Lens continues to grow. Vice-champion of France last season after having worried PSG for a long time, the Artesian club is now playing with the big fish of Ligue 1.

His return to the Champions League this season was accompanied by a drastic increase in his budget, the fifth in L1 with 118 million euros.
