Lens' CEO Arnaud Pouille has spoken during a press conference about the future of club's talented center-back Loic Badé amid reported interest from a host of European sides, including AC Milan and especially Stade Rennais. Here are his statements:
“Initially, concerning Loïc, we were not willing to sell, after that there was the interest of Rennes which was manifested on several occasions. Relations are courteous between the two clubs but there are requirements of shareholders of the 2 sides. When they set an index for a possible sale of Camavinga, they do not necessarily apply it when looking at a player from another club."
