Himbert is no longer an unknown quantity. Invited by Paulo Fonseca to train with the first team last July, he has since added real presence.

Lens’s defenders looked rattled by his direct running. The youngster’s aggression and timing repeatedly forced them back.

He turned 18 on Sunday and marked it with a goal at the Vélodrome. This latest display underlined a rapid rise that is hard to ignore.
