While Lens and Al-Nassr are in negotiations over the transfer of Seko Fofana, the Sang et Or are already making progress on the Ivorian midfielder's successor. The choice is Andy Diouf (20), who plays for Basel. On loan from Stade Rennais, the Swiss club lifted the purchase option after a successful season. L'Equipe reports that the Franco-Senegalese midfielder, who is under contract until 2027, has reached a contractual agreement with Lens. The Ligue 1 runners-up have now moved up a gear, with negotiations underway with Basel, who are demanding a €12 million package to complete the deal.
