In search of reinforcements for next season, OM would particularly appreciate the profile of Seko Fofana who shines in the midfield of RC Lens. Asked about his future, the Ivorian international also spoke of his future by setting an important condition, namely playing the Champions League.
Back in Ligue 1 in 2020, the RC Lens had not done things by halves to strengthen themselves and thus not make up the elite. With this in mind, the Sang-et-Or struck hard by attracting in particular Seko Fofana who had a very good season at Udinese . With this in mind, the Lensois managed to attract the Ivorian international for around € 10m which looks like a very big blow given the quality of the player, considered one of the best players in Ligue 1 at his post. Services that do not go unnoticed on the market since Newcastle would be willing to offer € 29M to RC Lens to secure the services of Seko Fofana while the OM has been following its services for many months. Asked about his future, the midfielder nevertheless shows his willingness to play in the Champions League .
Fofana wants to play in the Champions League
“I hope for a Champions League with Lens, for sure (laughs). After that, it's not easy. Sometimes we make tough decisions, but that's how it is. So, I'm really trying to think about the moment. I'm too good here, talking about it doesn't make me feel good, I don't like it. It's a feeling of well-being, you feel good with people, there are lots of things, trust. Think about all that and tell yourself that it happened quickly … “he says in an interview with La Voix du Nord. “It's a competition I know I can play. The Champions League is 6 group matches. Coming here was like coming to help the club and for me it was harder to make sure to structure the club, to bring it back up with in addition to the waiting behind, people, supporters. I was more concerned with coming here first, helping, leaving my mark, doing it right. After that, if I have to go and play at a club that plays the Champions League, I will. But if I don't, if I have to stay there, I have no problem with that. I take the maximum pleasure, I give everything I can and we'll see how it goes, ”added Seko Fofana . Third in Ligue 1 with a late match, OM must therefore keep pace to have a chance to convince Seko Fofana .
