Goalkeeper Brice Samba is said to be a transfer priority for Lens amid uncertainty over his Nottingham Forest future.
The shot-stopper has 12 months left to run on the four-year deal he signed when he joined the Reds from Caen in 2019. But reports suggest he has told the club he intends to leave this summer, having deemed the terms of a fresh contract “unacceptable”.
If the situation doesn’t get resolved, it seems Lens would be ready to take advantage. Former Angers SCO head of communications Mohamed Toubache-Ter, as quoted by Get French Football News, says the French outfit have been following the Forest keeper for a number of months.
