Sangaré featured 44 times for Rapid Wien last season, logging three goals and as many assists. The 23-year-old midfielder notably reached the UEFA Conference League quarter-finals last season with Rapid Wien. Lens were in need of reinforcements for their midfield after parting ways with Neil El-Aynaoui, who joined AS Roma. Meanwhile, Andy Diouf could also be on his way out amid interest from Napoli. Lens lost their home Ligue 1 opener against Lyon. They face Le Havre on Matchday 2.
