“When you’ve found your shoe…”, why change it? This is what RC Lens said when announcing the extension of Kevin Danso. The defender is now linked until 2027 with the artesian club.
Arrived in France in 2021, the Austrian international (13 selections) has gradually increased in power, to settle in the system of Franck Haise. The 24-year-old defender missed just one Ligue 1 game last season, suspended after a red card.
“Seeing Kevin extend, when he was being courted by major European teams, testifies to his loyalty to Racing and his desire to be fully involved in the project he joined two years ago, explains Arnaud Pouille, director general of the RCL. His attachment to family values fully corresponds to our DNA. Together with his brilliant progress, he has become a strong man in the locker room of which he is now a part. His good humor and exemplarity will still be undeniable vectors for performing in the coming season. We are therefore necessarily delighted to see him initial until 2027 with the club. »
