Mercato: Lens announces a signing! (OFFICIAL)

The Racing Club de Lens formalized an operation for its short-term future this Tuesday.

It was anticipated, it is now official: Jean-Louis Leca is returning to RC Lens. The Artesian club announced this Tuesday that the goalkeeper had signed a new contract which binds him to the club for an additional season. The former Bastiais, who had already extended his contract a year ago, will now be linked to the Sang et Or until 2025. At the age of 38, Leca looks like a dinosaur in a group which has experienced great emotions since his rise among the elite three years ago.

“ The extension of Jean-Louis Leca for an additional season goes beyond the simple signing of a contract, can we read in an official press release published by RC Lens, this Tuesday. It is the symbol of the club’s loyalty to a locker room captain, a player who carries the DNA of Racing.”

“Like Massadio Haïdara, Jean-Louis became an Artesian at heart, continues RC Lens. A heart that characterizes his temperament, him the tireless warrior. In training as in group life, he strives to set an example and ensure, with a hard core in the locker room, the transmission of the values ​​constituting our identity. Very happy to see our mutual story continue! »
