It was expected, it is now official: Ruben Aguilar extended his contract with the
Racing Club of Lens. The right side defender is now linked to blood and gold until 2028.
“In less than two seasons under the blood and gold colors, Ruben Aguilar has melted perfectly in the Sang et Or collective, Can we read in an official press release from the RC Lens.
Cadre of the locker room, the 32-year-old went to the coffee at Muriel to extend his contract with Racing until 2028. Located a stone's throw from Bollaert-Delelis, this historic lair of Lensois supporters-in particular by the old blood and gold Ladislas Schmidt until 1969-will close its doors in a few weeks after 46 years of service. A whole symbol for this discreet worker who embodies, as with Muriel, simplicity, authenticity and loyalty to RC Lens. After Jonathan Gradit, it is another experienced leader of the group of Will Still that extends the adventure in Artois! ».
