Scores off bench in win Said scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Clermont Foot.

Impact Said scored just six minutes after coming onto the pitch Saturday, a strike in the 82nd minute set up by Florian Sotoca. It marked his second goal of the season and his first since Sept. 24.

Appears off bench Said came off the bench for the final eight minutes of Wednesday's 1-0 loss to PSV.

Impact Said was recovering from a thigh issue and came off the bench for the final eight minutes. The striker will likely remain a depth option moving forward as Elye Wahi has been the preferred choice to lead the attack.

Bench option in return Said (thigh) is on the bench for Wednesday's UCL clash against PSV.

Impact Said is back on the bench for Lens after a two-match absence, sidelining him for the past two matches. The forward most likely won't get much time on the pitch Wednesday, if any at all, as he only held a rotational role off the bench before his injury.

NOVEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set for return Said (thigh) was included in the traveling squad for Wednesday's clash with PSV.

Impact Said has missed two matches with the muscular issue but it was never thought to be serious. While Said might not trouble the starting XI ahead of Elye Wahi he is still a nice addition to the bench that could provide some depth in what could be a tough match on the road.

NOVEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Said (thigh) will be out for Saturday's trip to Lorient, according to manager Franck Haise.

Impact Said will be back in training with the team Sunday, giving him a good chance to get back on the pitch before the Novemeber international break. Said could even potentially return as soon as a Nov. 8 trip to PSV, though a more likely return is Nov. 12 against Marseille.

NOVEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful Saturday Said (thigh) is a doubt for Saturday's clash with Nantes due to a minor thigh injury, according to manager Franck Haise.

Impact Said likely won't be risked for Saturday's clash though Haise didn't rule Said out from getting on the bench. With Elye Wahi fit once more Said's absence should be too much of an impact on the starting XI. If the injury is as minor as Lens suspect Said could be available as soon as a Nov. 4 trip to Lorient.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in first season start Said scored a goal off five shots (three on target) and created two chances during Sunday's 2-1 win over Toulouse.

Impact Said made his first start of the campaign was instrumental in Lens' first win, scoring a crucial equalizer before halftime after controlling the ball between two defenders and beating the goalkeeper with a classy finish. He also generated some plays for his teammates and was a constant threat to the Toulouse defense with his pace and movement. The forward looks completely free from the physical issues that slowed him down at the start of the campaign and will try to keep it up during Friday's visit to Strasbourg.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Said (hamstring) returned to training before Saturday's trip to Monaco, according to manager Franck Haise.

Impact Said's return to the pitch is coming sooner than expected as he has made a push to play during Saturday's trip to Monaco. It remains to be seen if he will be fit enough to do so but it's a great sign for his recovery after he was originally ruled out until the international break.
