This has become one of the most intriguing stories of the 2025 transfer window. RC Lens thought they had done everything needed to seal the transfer of Lassine Sinayoko. On the other hand, AJ Auxerre made a last-minute move to hold onto their Malian striker, who was also being courted by Rennes—a club that entered the race much later.

🚨 Breaking news 🚨 🔵⚪️ Lassine Sinayoko est bien présent à l’entraînement collectif ce matin. Il a noué ses lacets et pris une gorgée d’eau. Il aurait même levé la main ✋ pour demander un ballon à un coéquipier. Un moment historique 🤩 #SeQueda #FabriceAuxPims 🤡

Despite Lassine Sinayoko's desire to join the blood and gold, the northern management has ultimately decided to walk away from what became a seriously complicated deal. Frustrated by how events unfolded and the lack of respect for the agreements that were discussed and sent, they have made it clear they will not pursue the matter any further.
