The story is ending between the Racing Club of Lens and Przemyslaw Frankowski. And the end will not be very beautiful since the Pole has chosen to go as far as the strike to obtain an exit voucher for a transfer to the Galatasaray. After his refusal to play this weekend during the trip to Nice (2-0, 21st day of Ligue 1), the midfielder seems to have won.

After Foot transfer windowthe man with forty-seven selections with Poland was decided to go towards Turkey and therefore chose the strong way to push the lensoise direction to open the exit doors to him. If it is still necessary to wait for the formalization of the transfer, the operation should bring about ten million euros into the pocket of the northern club.

Another framework that goes away

Power holder since the arrival of Will Still on the bench, the one who will therefore have played three and a half years for the Sang et Or will still offer a beautiful added value to a RC Lens who had debauched him from the American club from Chicago in 2021, compared to 2.3 million euros. The Lensois have in any case sold a lot during this winter transfer window, including four importance departures.

In addition to Przemyslaw Frankowski who is more than ever on departure, the Sang et Or have also lost Kevin Danse (Tottenham), Brice Samba (Stade Rennais) as well as Abdukodir Khusanov (Manchester City). Seventh in the championship, Lens remains well placed in the race for Europe and has the same number of points (but a less good difference in goals) as Lyon (6th). It remains to be seen if all these departures will have or not impact on the rest of his season.
