West Ham United have confirmed that French centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo has departed the London Stadium to join Ligue 1 side RC Lens on a season-long loan deal. The move marks a swift return to his homeland for the defender, who has struggled to maintain a regular starting spot under the current management Nuno Espirito Santo in East London.
Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly surprised by the referee's official match report following Nuno Mendes' late red card against Lens. Les Parisiens fear the specific wording used by match official Jeremie Pignard could result in a severe suspension for the Portuguese full-back.
Lens secured a 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain to win the Trophee des Champions thanks to a goal from Florian Thauvin. However, the French governing body LFP has faced fierce criticism for staging the fixture at Lens' home stadium despite rules stipulating a neutral venue.
