Impact Sima's extended absence is a significant blow after he established himself as a regular starter in Lens' attack, starting each of the club's first five Ligue 1 matches while recording one goal and one assist. The striker had already missed Senegal's friendly against Comoros because of the issue, and Cahuzac has now confirmed a lengthy recovery period. Franjo Ivanovic and Odsonne Edouard should be among the main candidates for increased playing time in attack while Sima is unavailable.
