The French football club "Lens" has shown serious interest in the Krasnodar midfielder Eduard Spertsyan, but has not yet made an official offer for the player. This information appeared on the FootMercato website. This transfer could become a significant event in the summer transfer window, as Eduard Spertsyan is considered one of the most promising young footballers with the potential to perform at a high level.
"Lens" is entering a new phase of development under the leadership of the new coach Will Still, who is only 31 years old, and the new sporting director Pierre Dreossi. This duo intends to build a competitive team capable of fighting for high places in Ligue 1. Despite a limited budget, the club is actively exploring possible reinforcement options, one of which is Eduard Spertsyan.
Eduard Spertsyan, who is often compared to Aleksandr Golovin in France, possesses outstanding skills, especially in free-kick execution. His play has attracted the attention of many clubs, including the Spanish "Girona," which is also interested in acquiring the talented midfielder. Spertsyan has been on the radar of "Marseille" and "Nice" for a long time, but neither of these clubs has made a concrete offer.
According to Transfermarkt, Spertsyan's value is estimated at 20 million euros. According to our sources, Krasnodar itself values its captain at roughly the same amount and is not willing to sell him for less than 18-20 million euros.
At the moment, "Lens" is focused on summer cuts, which should free up funds for future purchases. This makes the transfer of Eduard Spertsyan possible but not guaranteed.
Eduard Spertsyan has already played 27 matches for the Armenian national team, scoring 4 goals. His experience and skills could become a significant reinforcement for "Lens," especially in the context of building a new team. Considering the interest from various clubs, as well as the fact that Spertsyan was only a week ago chosen as the new captain of Krasnodar, the summer transfer might prove to be very challenging. However, "Lens" has a chance of successfully completing this deal if it can offer the player and his team attractive conditions.
Time will tell how events will unfold, but if the transfer happens, it will be a significant step for both Spertsyan and "Lens," which aims to secure a top position in French football. The fact that the team's owner is Armenian, Joseph Oughourlian, adds optimism to the upcoming transfer.
