The RC Lens would like to get the Sierraleonian central defender Juma Bah (19) again, but he has conditions that do not work Manchester City.
🟨 Negotiation in progress
Landed last winter in Artois, as a thank you from Manchester City for the transfer of Abdukodir Khuzanov, Juma Bah rendered proud services to the Sang et Or. With him holder, Racing lost only two matches out of eight, proof that the 19-year-old Sierra-Léonais has a bright future, which had led the Citizens to recruit him in Valladolid… two days before sending him to France. But even if he is promised to a brilliant future in the sky blue jersey, Bah will not play right away for City. His club still wants to lend him a season to continue his progress in a training in which he would hold, which would obviously not be the case in Manchester.
Racing does not want to pay his salary
According to Foot Mercato, the RC Lens applied to take it back for a year. But there are two obstacles to a return. The first is that Racing does not want to have to pay the salary of Juma Bah, who will therefore have to be fully supported by City. The second is that two Spanish clubs are also on the spot. And as long as there is Girona, which also belongs to the City Group … The salary question could also be a real obstacle because Manchester City expects to undergo large sanctions in the fall on the part of the Premier League for having violated the financial regulations more than a hundred times. There will necessarily be a fine in the lot. The Sky Blues, who recruit enormously before the arrival of these sanctions, are therefore likely to count their sos subsequently …
The good news is that Foot Mercato assures that Jean-Louis Leca is aware that it will be complicated to bring Juma Bah back to Lens and that he is working on other tracks in parallel to strengthen the post of central defender.
“The FC goal glance”
“Juma Bah left a very good impression in Lens during her six months of loan and it would necessarily be good news if he was again sending to Sang et Or. But given the conditions posed by Racing, it seems to us that it is very unlikely that it will lead. Jean-Louis Leca does well to work on other tracks in parallel. »»
