FC St. Pauli is attempting to re-sign Morgan Guilavogui in the winter. The 27-year-old Guinean international attacker is currently a substitute player at RC Lens. He was popular with fans during his loan spell last season. After his loan, St. Pauli exercised a three million euro purchase option in the summer. RC Lens then used a buy-back clause to reacquire him for 4.5 million euros, which was against his wishes. The French club will only consider a sale, not another loan, and has established the 4.5 million euros they paid as the basis for negotiations. St. Pauli would likely need to reduce that figure given their financial means. Guilavogui has 21 caps for his country and is under contract with Lens until 2027. His current market value is €4.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
