On Wednesday, the transfer from Häcken to Lens became official. On Friday, the 19-year-old right-back scored his first goal - after just one minute on the pitch.

The French top club RC Lens has recruited Agbonifo in a loan deal with a purchase option. According to Expressen, it includes a mandatory purchase option of approximately 80 million kronor.

The Swedish U21 national team player got a top start in his new club. In Friday's match against Montpellier, he was substituted in at 1-0 and scored a goal after 60 seconds.

Lens has established itself as a top team in Ligue 1 in recent seasons, with a second-place finish in 2022/2023 as its best result.

Jeremy Agbonifo has his background in BK Häcken and has been with Porto FC for a while.
