FC Lorient: Sambou Soumano on Brentford's radar | OneFootball

Sambou Soumano

According to recent reports from England, Brentford are showing interest in Lorient striker Sambou Soumano.

Since joining FC Lorient in 2021, the Senegal international Sambou Soumano has spent loan spells at Eupen and Rodez during the 2022-23 season before being sent to Quevilly-Rouen for the 2023-24 campaign. Returning to Lorient last summer, he netted 14 goals in 32 Ligue 2 appearances, playing a key role in the club's promotion to Ligue 1.

His performances have clearly caught the eye of several English clubs, with Brentford particularly attentive. The Bees are entering a new era under Keith Andrews, who has been promoted to head coach. And according to Football Insider, Brentford have identified Sambou Soumano as a top target for the summer transfer window.

The 24-year-old striker is entering the final year of his contract, a situation that could allow the Bees to negotiate a cut-price transfer.
