Fodé Sylla could leave RC Lens at the end of the season. Despite his contract being extended until June 2028 at the start of the season, Sylla has had limited playing time, making only three appearances in all competitions. According to Média Foot, the RC Lens management is not against the idea of loaning Fodé Sylla to allow him to gain experience. The planned arrangement is a loan with no purchase option. The same source states that USL Dunkerque has already shown interest in Fodé Sylla and that discussions could begin quickly between the two clubs. The goal is to provide playing time to the player without compromising his medium-term future at RC Lens.

Pierre Sage confirmed that 19-year-old French defensive midfielder Fodé Sylla is leaving, despite the transfer window having ended in several countries. A new loan is being considered. Sylla is a France U20 international with 7 caps and has made 2 appearances in Ligue 1 this season. His contract with RC Lens is valid until 2028, and his current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €1.00m.
