Lorient manager Olivier Pantaloni told Foot Amatuer Bretagne that Mohamed Bamba's absence during the 3-1 win over Hauts Lyonnais was a minor sanction for a lack of group discipline. Pantaloni stated that repeated lapses have led to his belief that performing well requires adherence to the discipline they have established. He added that there have been a few shortcomings in this regard, for which the striker has been sanctioned.

Aris FC, a Greek club based in Thessaloniki, has made an official offer for a paid loan to acquire the Ivorian striker Mohamed Bamba from Lorient. Lorient, the French club, is expected to respond to this offer within 48 hours. Mohamed Bamba, who is 23 years old and under contract until 2028, has been the subject of interest from several clubs over multiple transfer windows but has never left Lorient. Last season, he played 18 matches in Ligue 2, scoring three goals and providing seven assists. Currently, Transfermarkt estimates his market value at 5.00 million euros.
