There will be no reunion between Brice Samba and Lens this Saturday at 5 p.m. at the Bollaert stadium. According to our information, the number 1 goalkeeper of Stade Rennais is not in the group which is due to head to the north of France at the end of the afternoon.
Its absence is the consequence of recent electrical days. The 31-year-old French international would have had a tough explanation with coach Habib Beye a few moments after the elimination in the Coupe de France in Marseille (3-0) on Tuesday evening. He would have criticized him in particular for his long clearance which caused the second goal.
At a press conference, Habib Beye spoke this Friday about this episode to deny any clash with the former Lensois. He mentions “a coach’s instruction like there is in every locker room. » In a few hours, however, Brice Samba will be in the cage. The young Mathys Silistrie (20 years old), extended at the beginning of January until 2029, will experience his second professional start. The first in Ligue 1. Rennes goes to Lens with three goalkeepers trained at the club, since Kilian Belazzoug (19 years old) and Ayoub Akabou (18 years old) are also on the trip.
