Hervé Koffi is on a season-long loan at Angers from RC Lens, and the agreement does not include an option to buy. He has attracted interest as a result of his exceptional performances. Angers does not have the financial resources to retain him, so his parent club Lens intends to sell him due to his increased market value. It is reported that the Lens management has set a starting price of approximately 8 million euros for the 29-year-old goalkeeper. AS Saint-Étienne, which now has new investors, is monitoring the situation in consideration of a potential promotion to Ligue 1. Koffi's contract with Lens expires in the summer of 2028, and his annual salary at the club was 720,000 euros.
