Key strength: Pace and recovery
Overlapping full-back
Saud Abdulhamid has quietly become an essential cog in RC Lens's surprising rise to second place in the table. The 26-year-old Saudi international, valued at €3 million, has made 17 appearances this season, contributing 1 goal and 2 assists while operating as an overlapping right-back who thrives on pace and recovery. Despite being surrounded by higher-profile teammates like Florian Thauvin and Wesley Saïd, Abdulhamid has carved out a vital role in Lens's backline, accumulating 717 minutes of action without a single yellow or red card. In a squad where Sima's flair and Baidoo's defensive steel command attention, Abdulhamid offers disciplined width and defensive reliability. As Lens mount a genuine title challenge, his consistent presence and tactical discipline exemplify the unsung contributions driving their unexpected ascent.
