Ligue 2 has been very generous in producing exceptional young talents since last season, and this summer, many names have successfully secured big moves with a substantial fee.
Some moved one step above Ligue 1, some others played in a slightly higher level of football, albeit still second tier, and some secured a move to other top-flight clubs in a top league in Europe.
Lorient let go of two of their best talents: Alexis Claude-Maurice to Nice and Illan Meslier to Leeds (loan with an option to buy).
They did manage to keep some of their top prospects, though, with Julien Ponceau, Yoane Wissa, and Houboulang Mendes all staying at Stade du Moustoir.
Some new names such as Tom Renaud and Enzo Le Fée were also promoted from the B side.
With the departure of Claude-Maurice, Lorient needed a new creator in the advanced area.
Somebody who’s technically skilled, quick-witted, and able to create something out of nothing.
Le Fée immediately rose up and shone since the start of the season, showing that he’s capable of producing the same, if not better, results than Claude-Maurice in the same position.
The 2000-born French midfielder has been consistently impressive and has shown significant development since last season.
Even now, he seemed to even put the highly-regarded Ponceau in his shadows with his brilliance.
It’s only a matter of time now before he makes his big break, but for now, Lorient seems to be the perfect place for him to develop.
Let’s look closer at the native of Lorient in this Enzo Le Fée scout report.
Enzo Le Fée Strength and agility
Standing 1.70m (5’7”) tall with a lean body build and not particularly developed upper and lower muscles, Le Fée is not a very strong player at all.
The small-framed youngster shows the lack of ability to protect the by shielding it and he seems quite easy to outmuscle in challenges.
However, the Lorient-born midfielder is very agile and extremely good at staying on his feet.
The right-footed midfielder is very well-coordinated and has very good body balance.
His excellent agility and balance can be seen as he’s not just able to manoeuvre and turn quickly with or without the ball, but it is also very difficult to move off the ball when he’s already into his stride.
