Impact Haidara had been the regular starter at left-back since the end of November. His injury will be a significant loss for the team, especially since his natural substitute, Jordan Amavi, is also sidelined with a hamstring injury that will keep him out for several weeks. Youngster Luck Zogbe is expected to step in as the starting left-back for the time being.

Off at half, suffers muscle injury Haidara was forced off at halftime of Saturday's 2-1 win over Lyon due to a muscle injury, according to manager Eric Roy.

Impact Haidara is set to undergo testing following his exit at half, with the defender suffering a muscle injury that made him unable to continue. This could be a brutal loss for the club, as he is not only their regular starter at left-back but Jordan Amavi (strain) also exited due to injury. That said, they are out of their normal left-back options, likely leaving Luck Zogbe to take over that role if both miss time.

Plays 90 against Barcelona Haidara started and played the full 90 in Tuesday's 3-0 loss against Barcelona.

Impact Haidara is out for an undisclosed reason Friday, either returning to the club with an injury or needing rest following the international break. This will be a major loss for the club, as he is a regular starter. That said, Jordan Amavi will likely see the start while Haidara is out.

Returns following suspension Haidara cleared his ban and is an option moving forward.

Impact Haidara is back as an option after seeing a red card last time out, having picked up two yellow cards against Le Havre. The defender will look to start in the club's next match, as he has started in four of the six matches he has been available for.

Sees pair of yellows Haidara was sent off in the 73rd minute of Sunday's 1-0 win over Le Havre after being shown a second yellow card.

Impact Haidara will be suspended for at least one match following the international break, having been shown his marching orders in the 73rd minute after seeing his second yellow card of the match. This will leave him suspended to face Rennes on Oct. 19, with a return set for Oct. 26 against Reims. He has started in his past two appearances, so this will force a change, with Luck Zogbe or Jordan Amavi (undisclosed) as his likely replacements.

Available to face Clermont Haidara (illness) is in the squad to play Saturday against Clermont.

Impact Haidara was deemed doubtful earlier this week due to an illness, but it seems he recovered in time to feature here. The defender got two starts in three matches before the break and is expected to get the start if fit once more.

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful with illness Haidara (illness) is a doubt for Saturday's trip to Clermont Foot, according to manager Franck Haise.

Impact Haidara returned from international duty with Mali with an illness. The defender got two starts in three matches before the break and is expected to get the start if fit once more. Przemyslaw Frankowski is a likely option in the starting XI if Haidara is deemed unable to go for Saturday's match.

Starts, attempts seven crosses Haidara registered one shot (zero on goal) and seven crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Lorient.

Impact Haidara was given a start out wide, his first since Sept. 2 at Monaco. While the versatile Frenchman did not do much then, that was not the case Saturday. Haidara attempted more crosses against Lorient than he did during his other four appearances across the 2023-24 Ligue 1 so far. Now, the question for Haidara is if his latest appearance warrants continued starting opportunities. He was utterly inaccurate with his crosses Saturday. So despite his volume, Deiver Andres Machado remains the favorite out wide on Lens' left side.

Makes two crosses Friday Haidara registered two crosses (one accurate) and four clearances in Friday's 0-0 draw versus Le Havre.

Impact Haidara was fit enough to start at center back Friday after missing the last four matches with a thigh injury. He's only started two of the four Ligue 1 games played as he will likely have to share playing time with Deiver Andres Machado.

OCTOBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes the starting XI Haidara is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Le Havre.

Impact Haidara will be featuring for Lens for the first time in four matches after making the starting XI on Friday. It is a bit of a surprise to see him in the starting XI, seeing he has only started one other match this campaign. He may start to contend for time in the starting XI, especially with fellow defender Devier Andres Machado out injured.

Included in squad list Haidara (thigh) will be an option for Friday's match against Le Harve after making the squad list.

Impact Haidara may be making his return to the pitch on Friday after making the preliminary squad. The defender has been sidelined for the past month with a tight injury, but after having an additional two weeks to heal due to the international break, he seems to be almost fully fit and ready to go. He had only started one match before his knock, so it is most likely that he will only serve as an option off the bench with minimal minutes in his first match back.

OCTOBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't be available against Arsenal Haidara (thigh) will not be active for Tuesday's match against Arsenal after being left out of the preliminary squad.

Impact Haidara will be absent for another match after being left out of the preliminary squad for the third straight match. He could close in on a return for Sunday's match against Lille, but will most likely only be an option off of the bench, apperaing in four matches this season with only one being as a starter.

OCTOBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Friday Haidara (thigh) will not be in the traveling squad versus Strasbourg on Friday.

Impact Haidara will be out of the squad for the third time in the club's last four contests due to his lingering thigh problem. Even when healthy, the defender has made just one appearance in the starting XI and figures to serve primarily as a bench option his season.

Impact Haidara will be on the sideline for Sunday's match due to a thigh injury he picked up in training. It's a rough turn for the defender who has appeared in four of six matches in all competitions. Haidara has only started once though, and likely doesn't offer much change to the starting XI. Haidara's first chance to return is a Sept. 29 trip to Strasbourg on short rest.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Called up against Sevilla Haidara (undisclosed) was included in the traveling squad to face Sevilla on Wednesday.

Impact Haidara has started just once in four appearances for the club this season, so he is far from a lock for the starting XI even if deemed fully fit. In that lone start, the defender was forced off at halftime due to his undisclosed injury. If he does start, if could see Ruben Aguilar relegated to a spot on the bench.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Left out Saturday Haidara (undisclosed) was unavailable versus Metz on Saturday, raising doubt regarding his status against Sevilla on Wednesday.

Impact Haidara has started just once in four matches this season, including being an unused substitute once, so he may not have featured in the starting XI even if deemed fully fit. Even when he does start, the defender won't offer much in the way of offensive upside and will generally compile mostly defensive stats.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Game time call Haidara is a doubt for Saturday's clash with Metz, according to manager Franck Haise.

Impact Haidara's status is unclear Saturday due to an undisclosed injury. The defender started the final match before the international break so it's not clear if Haidara's injury is something new he picked up during the break or an injury he's been nursing since the season began.
