Will Still wants to reunite with Alexis Flips at Lens | OneFootball

Foot Mercato and Sacha Tavolieri understand that RC Lens are interested in Anderlecht midfielder Alexis Flips (24), with whom new manager Will Still worked at Stade de Reims.

Lens may now be working under a more austere regime but there is still plenty of ambition to build a competitive squad for their new manager Still. Les Sang et Or remain in the race to sign highly-coveted FC Metz forward Georges Mikautadze, despite the calibre of competition for his signature.

They are also interested in Flips, who now plies his trade in Belgium for Anderlecht. The former France youth international joined the Belgian side in the summer of 2023 but spent the second half of his debut campaign in Turkey. Lens could now be set to offer Flips a route back to France. Anderlecht are demanding €3.5m for the attacking midfielder, who was signed for the same fee just 12 months ago.
