Rayan Fofana
19-Year-Old
Lens
Ligue 1
Scores late consolation goal
Fofana scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus Marseille.
ANALYSIS
Fofana pulled one back in the 85th minute to make it 3-1 against Marseille at the Velodrome on Saturday, arriving in the box to finish after Mamadou Sangare's sublime assist. The goal briefly rewarded Lens for their improved spell after the break. It came too late to shift the match, but it did prevent a shutout. Fofana has mainly been a bench option this season for Lens but could see some increased playing time in the coming weeks, as coach Pierre Sage appeared annoyed by the performance of Wesley Said, which could lead to Fofana earning more chances in the frontline.

Inks contract extension
Fofana signed a contract extension with Lens until 2029, the club announced. "Rayan is a talented player and a young man deeply committed to our values. He has established himself at the start of this season as a credible option for the coach thanks to his technical skills, his tireless work ethic, and his engaging personality. Through daily training, he still needs to become more efficient and mature in his decision-making; this is precisely the reason for this contract extension, which demonstrates the club's confidence in him by continuing to support his development. Beyond his individual qualities, he is a representative of the Gaillette academy's training program and should serve as a role model for the young players at the center," said Sporting Director Jean-Louis Leca.
