PARIS (AP) – By the time Arnaud Souquet realized what had just happened, Renato Sanches was already sprinting past him.
A moment of breathtaking skill from Sanches during Lille's recent home win signaled his return to form, following a long and frustrating lean spell since his spectacular rise to prominence at the European Championship in 2016.
Fans asking "What happened to Renato Sanches?" can tune into the French league this season to find out. But if they watched last Friday's moment of magic against Montpellier, they will already have seen for themselves how Sanches is a rejuvenated player.
