Relegated to Ligue 2 by the financial gendarme of French football, the DNCG, Olympique Lyonnais will have to find funds quickly. The Rhone club could lose Georges Mikautadze. The Georgian striker has no shortage of pretenders. In particular the friends of John Textor.
For his first season on the side of Olympique Lyonnais, Georges Mikautadze was able to convince. The Georgian international (37 selections, 20 goals) scored 17 achievements in all competitions in 47 appearances with the Rhone club. But the precarious situation of OL could push the former Messin towards the exit. Recruited for 18.5 million euros last summer, the native of Lyon is one of the market values of the seven -time champion of France. After its administrative relegation to Ligue 2, the Rhone club called on and must find funds in emergency. Players are expected to leave. After the Roma, Georges Mikautadze attracts clubs in the Premier League.

The Georgian international is observed by Nottingham Forest. The Premier League club finished seventh last season. The links between the president of the club twice winner of the Champions League Evángelos Marinákis, and John Textor are known. Despite the latter's withdrawal, Nottingham wants to try it. According to Transferfeed, the Georgian striker's price is estimated at 25 million euros. Georges Mikautadze has a contract until 2028 on the OL side. But Nottingham Forest is not the only candidate on the file. AS Roma but also Frankfurt has inquired about the player for a few days. The Italian club is looking for an attacker for next season and Georges Mikautadze is a solution. For OL a sale of 25 million euros is not negligible. But we will have to do it quickly so that the funds can be registered before the call before the DNCG.
