Lecce is looking for a striker to play alongside or as an alternative to Krstovic. The latest name is Rafiki SaidComorian national but with a French passport, reveals today the Sports Courier. The 24-year-old has scored 9 goals per year in recent Ligue 2 seasons with Nimes (2022/2023) and Troyes (2023/2024). Said is known for his speed and dribbling ability, which allows him to beat his man with ease and create opportunities for his teammates. He is also a very intelligent player tactically, capable of moving between the lines and exploiting the spaces left by opposing defenses.
Said began his career in the youth system of Clermont, where he immediately showed great potential thanks to his speed, technical ability and eye for goal. After establishing himself in the youth system, he made his debut for the first team in the 2020/21 season, starting to carve out an increasingly important space for himself within the squad.
According to what is being written in Belgium these days, Charleroi are also interested in the striker. The Belgian team has also presented an initial offer of 400 thousand euros, which was however rejected by Troyes. Born on May 14, 2000, Said is a versatile striker, capable of playing both as a winger and as a central striker.
