I also hope so and want to see Lens' performance next season much better than this season, but the real concern lies in consistency and most clubs that manage to finish in Runner-up will find it difficult to maintain it in the following season, especially because Lens is not one of the clubs that often finishing in the top four in the League and the luck factor this season may not be repeated next season. If they don't carry out a major overhaul by bringing in several new players it will be difficult to maintain a position like this season and Lens will also play in the Champions League next season.

PSG are in a state of insecurity and many of their current stars want to leave the club, but if you look at their financial capabilities it shouldn't be a big problem. Jose Mourinho is reportedly going to accept an offer to coach PSG although until now there has been no further clarity, they have also brought in several new players and I am sure they will be looking for other players to replace some of their departed stars.
Lens has good performance in this season by finishing 2nd standings position, actually Lens has good performance last season with 7th position standings placed finish and they can move to 2nd standings in this season. But I am not really sure with Lens has consistent performance for next season regarding have busy match schedule.

Lens will play in Champion League next season and make them have focus not only with domestic league but also how can talk more and qualify from group stage in Champion League. Difficult for Ligue 1 teams have consistent performance depend on Lille success won tittle season 2020/21 but they failed finish on top standings position upcoming season after stuck on 10th placed on season 2021/22. Lens will follow the same way like Lille or next season they can compete for Ligue 1 tittle race with PSG.
From finishing in seventh place to an amazing second place in the standings over the past two seasons Lens has unquestionably made remarkable improvement. However consistency can be difficult to maintain particularly given the hard schedule that comes with playing in the Champions League. Lens will now need to balance their domestic league obligations with their European campaign which calls for concentration and efficient team rotation. The inability of Lille to repeat their title winning success the following season serves as a reminder that Ligue 1 teams have recently had trouble maintaining consistent results. The challenge for Lens will be to combine their goals for the Champions League and the Ligue 1 championship where PSG is still a strong contender. It will be fascinating to watch if Lens can maintain their improvement and compete at the highest level on several fronts in the forthcoming season which will present an exciting test for them.
