Shakhtar and Burkina Faso national team striker Lassina Traore, 23, attended the French Cup match between Lance and Paris Saint-Germain.

The game, which took place in Lance at the Bollar-Delilis stadium, ended in a 1:1 draw, but in the penalty shootout, the Parisians were stronger and more successful – 4:3.

Several football players with Burkinabe roots play in “Lance”. These are 28-year-old goalkeeper Hervé Coffey (60 matches for the national team) and 19-year-old center back Pierre-Esmaelo Ganiu.

It is interesting that a few days ago information appeared in the media about the interest of “Lance” in Lassina Traore. At the time, sources reported that the bosses of the French club are serious about signing the attacker and will allegedly be ready to pay the necessary amount to buy the contract of the African from the “miners”.

In the current season, Traore played 18 matches for Shakhtar in all competitions, scoring 3 goals and 3 assists.
