OL agreed with Nottingham Forest for the transfer of Malick Fofana. But the young Belgian aspires to join a more ambitious club.
Criticized and pushed towards the exit by the supporters, John Textor took back to give way to Michele Kang. Already owned by OL Lyonnes, the American businesswoman is launched in a social plan in order to reduce the payroll, to fill the debts and to encourage the DNCG to authorize OL to leave in L1. It is with this in mind that the Olympian club hopes to relieve itself from its biggest wages, in particular Corentin Tolisso and Jordan Veretout.
Bayern, Chelsea and Naples on the lookout
OL also hopes to sell its most bankable player: Malick Fofana. And according to Fabrizio Romano, things are moving for the young Belgian striker. OL would have even concluded an agreement to transfer Fofana to Nottingham Forest, a club with which John Textor maintains close links. Except that Fofana is asked to join the English club. He would like to leave Lyon for a qualified club in the Champions League. Chelsea would think of him, while Bayern Munich and Naples would have taken information. A hot file, because OL must do quickly!
