RC Lens are being linked with a move for Feyenoord defensive midfielder Oussama Targhalline, whose future in Rotterdam remains uncertain amid fresh transfer speculation.
The 23-year-old Moroccan, valued at €12.00m on Transfermarkt, is rumoured to be on the Ligue 1 club’s radar as they assess midfield options for the next window. Data lists the probability of a move as “?”, underlining that talks, if any, are at an early and speculative stage.
Targhalline is currently on the books at Feyenoord, wearing the number 28 shirt, and operating primarily as a defensive midfielder. Born on 20 May 2002 in Casablanca, the 1.86m right-footer has built a reputation as a screening presence in front of the back four, with his profile attracting attention beyond the Eredivisie.
His contract situation at Feyenoord is not clearly defined in the available data, with no confirmed expiry date. That ambiguity has fuelled suggestions he could become a free agent in the near future or at least be available at a price that might tempt suitors such as Lens, who are regularly active in the French market for emerging talent.
Targhalline represents Morocco at international level and is listed with Moroccan nationality only, further strengthening Lens’ recent trend of recruiting from North African and francophone markets. His current estimated value of €12.00m would represent a significant investment for Lens but remains within the range commonly associated with established starters in Ligue 1.
Recent statistics and specific match details are not disclosed in the provided data, but Targhalline’s standing at Feyenoord in the Eredivisie gives any prospective move a degree of weight, even if no formal bid has been reported.
Should a transfer to Lens materialise, the switch from Dutch to French top-flight football could prove a pivotal step in his career trajectory, potentially enhancing his reputation in Europe and consolidating his role as a key Moroccan midfielder on the continental stage.
