Daniel Adjei in RC Lens trials

Ghana's Olympic team goalkeeper Daniel Adjei is in France for trials with RC Lens, SuperSport.com understands. The player joined the French second-division side a few days ago.

Adjei is looking at getting a permanent deal at the Ligue 2 side who were relegated from the top flight only last season. The main goalkeepers at the club are also African, with first choice being Tunisia’s Hamdi Kasraoui while Zakarya Bergdich of Morocco is his deputy.
