The Ivory Coast international’s recent return to form has given the Great Danes hope of stalling the league leaders’ title celebration
In football, a whole lot can change in a year. Leicester City went from narrowly beating the drop in 2014/15 to claiming the Premier League the following year, while Chelsea went from title winners to finishing 10th in the Foxes’ title-winning campaign.
For LOSC Lille, the complete turnaround in the last 12 months has been nothing short of remarkable. Following a disastrous 2017/18 season where the Great Danes ended in 17th, avoiding the relegation playoffs by a small margin, their rise to second this term has been outstanding.
