A report from
Foot Mercato
indicates that
RC Lens
is eager to sign Gift Links (27) from Aarhus Gymnastikforening in Denmark.
The French source reports that Lens is making significant efforts to acquire the left wing-back, and there seems to be mutual interest, with an agreement already established between the South African international (who has five caps from 2018 to 2021) and the club.

However, a deal between Lens and Aarhus has yet to be reached. Links has expressed his desire to leave, but the club is reluctant to let him go, especially as they aim to retain him for the UEFA Champions League preliminaries.
Foot Mercato
also notes that a recent offer from Lens for the defender was turned down.
Lens is looking to bolster their left defense ahead of the new season, having sold
Deiver Machado
(32) during the January transfer window, and with his temporary replacement,
Arthur Masuaku
(32), returning to his parent club
Sunderland
after a short loan spell.
