The future of attacker Ousmane Cissokho is very unclear with just three days of this window remaining.
The player has a pre-agreement with RC Lens should their transfer embargo be lifted.
According to our colleagues at Midi Libre, Lorient will make an offer for the player in the next 24 hours.
FC Metz were very close to a deal, but it is possible that they have finally decided not to sign the player.
