Despite feeling content at his current club, the 30-year-old Franco-Congolese midfielder is considering the possibility of seeking new experiences outside of France, particularly in Italy or England.
Speaking on RMC, Mavuba reflected on his past experience playing in Spain with Villareal from 2006 to 2007, highlighting it as a positive experience on a personal level. He expressed his desire to explore playing in other leagues such as Italy and England, indicating his openness to new challenges and opportunities.
Mavuba’s comments suggest that while he values his time at Lille and his potential involvement with the French national team, he remains open to the idea of broadening his horizons and experiencing different football cultures in other countries.
