Will Still will be massively shorthanded when his RC Lens side travel to Stade de la Meinau on Sunday to face RC Strasbourg.

The Belgian coach announced on Friday that central defender Jonathan Gradit suffered an ankle sprain, joining a long list of absentees for Les Sang et Or this weekend.

Sidi Bane and Hamzat Ojediran are out because of a hamstring strain, while Jimmy Cabot is still recovering from a knee issue.

Other absentees include Hervé Koffi (back), Martín Satriano (ACL), and Kevin Danso (heart), Neil El Aynaoui (muscle), while Rémy Labeau and Anass Zaroury are both suspended.

The news regarding Danso is encouraging in the long term as the Austrian defender published a medical statement on his social media handle that authorised him to play again.

Four of Still’s players will feature on the international stage next week, including Andy Diouf (France U-21), Przemyslaw Frankowski (Poland), Nampalys Mendy (Senegal) and Deiver Machado (Colombia).

Heading into this encounter, Lens are sixth in the table with 10 points and undefeated to this stage of the campaign.
