RC Lens midfielder Moroccan Neil El Aynaoui has secured his second consecutive Player of the Month award, garnering a resounding 61.29% of votes in a daily online poll on the club's website. This impressive feat further emphasizes his growing influence and impact on the team. Brice Samba came in second place with 10.55%, followed by teammate Andy Diouf at 9.55%. Facundo Medina rounded out the top four with 8.81%, while the remaining votes were distributed among other players. El Aynaoui joined RC Lens in July 2023 from AS Nancy-Lorraine, signing a contract that extends until 2027. This move aligns with the club's strategy of acquiring promising young talents with high potential. Growing up alongside his father, Moroccan tennis champion Younès El Aynaoui (once ranked 14th in the world), Neil has undoubtedly been instilled with a strong dedication to achieving excellence in high-level sports. RC Lens describes El Aynaoui as "a thoughtful, ambitious young talent who is true to his colors," highlighting his commitment and potential within the team.
