The RC Lens coach did not really appreciate the departure of Loïs Openda, barely a year after his arrival. Franck Haise has lost his best striker of last season.
Let’s put ourselves in his place. Would we be happy if our best striker of last season was sold for financial reasons? Obviously not. Franck Haise, if he understands the economic motivations of RC Lens, does not appreciate having lost Loïs Openda, sold to RB Leipzig for nearly 50 million euros, bonus included.
” He wants to leave, what do you want me to tell you ? “, had dropped the coach of the Sang et Or in front of the media, Friday evening after the second preparation match of the summer against Amiens (2-2), in remarks reported by RMC Sports.
If the northern club is there financially, the young Belgian striker, 21 goals scored last season, does not lose out either. ” He multiplies his salary by four, he absolutely wants to go to Leipzig, three days before he absolutely wants to stay in Lens…”, reveals Franck Haise.
Fofana is also likely to miss
” I’ve seen a lot in 35 years in football, and I’ll see a few more.”concludes the Lensois coach who must also compose without Seko Fofana, another strong Lensois link in a 2022-2023 exercise completed in second place in Ligue 1.
The Ivorian midfielder has every chance of playing in Saudi Arabia next season.
