Osame Sahraoui
LOSC
Starts in friendly
Sahraoui (undisclosed) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's friendly against OH Leuven, the club posted.
Analysis: Sahraoui had missed most of the second half of last season with a groin problem and had yet to feature in any preseason friendlies before this, so his return to the starting XI is a significant step forward in his recovery. His involvement gives Lille a boost heading into the new season as he looks to regain a regular role on the left wing after Felix Correia and Basar Onal had figured to be the main options in his absence.
Recovering from slight issue
Sahraoui suffered a small injury during the preseason and has yet to make an appearance in friendly matches, per Le Petit Lillois.
Analysis: Sahraoui missed most of the second half of the 2025/26 season due to a groin problem, and his exclusion from practice games suggests he's not yet 100 percent fit. He could have enough time to progress in his recovery ahead of the start of the next campaign in August, but he'll need to work on his physical condition before being considered as a real contender for starting spots. Meanwhile, both Felix Correia and Basar Onal should be the team's main picks on the left wing.
