Lens general director Arnaud Pouille has lauded the contribution of Ghanaian international Abdul Salis Samed.
Salis, 23, was instrumental for Lens in the just ended season as they finished second in Ligue 1 and he has now been offered a new deal up to June 30, 2028.
The Lens boss mentioned that Salis is a leader and he has been very key to the fortunes of the club since being signed from Clermont Foot.
“We begin this summer transfer window with the extension of a key player in our team, both in terms of performance and spirit: Salis Abdul Samed. Beyond his emergence at the highest level, beyond his impressive performance at the World Cup with Ghana, beyond his consistency, he embodies the joy of this group and is one of the leaders in terms of commitment and festive character. Extending Salis’s contract was a no-brainer. It is a symbol that illustrates our approach of starting with continuity. Congratulations, Salis, and we look forward to seeing you compete in continental competitions!” Pouille stated
Salis played 33 Ligue 1 games for Lens in the just ended season scoring one goal and providing 1 assist.
