No transfer history

Chancel Mbemba is Lille's Silver Engine, arriving as a highly decorated veteran with sixteen major trophies to his name. Having conquered leagues in Portugal, Belgium, and England, the DR Congo international provides essential leadership to the backline during this new chapter of his storied career.

Operating as the team's Engine, Mbemba has proven his work rate by featuring as a key tactical piece in three of his nine appearances so far. Though he has accumulated 682 minutes on the pitch, he is currently going through a quiet spell as he adjusts to the tactical demands of his new surroundings. His Defense rating remains his standout attribute, providing a solid foundation even as his overall form is searching for rhythm. Holding a SQUAD PLAYER badge, he remains a reliable option who provides composure under pressure.

Valued at €2M with a falling trend, the Stakes for Mbemba revolve around maintaining his status as an elite defensive general. His primary objective is to arrest the recent dip in form and solidify his influence on the pitch during this crucial phase of the season.
