OL will try to be ambitious this summer during the transfer market. The profile of Ellyes Skhiri is very popular with Rhone leaders.
After another difficult season in Ligue 1, OL will try to get off to a good start in the coming weeks. If the Gones will not play any European competition, John Textor has promised significant changes this summer. OL fans and observers therefore expect movement. Laurent Blanc, for his part, wants to see quality players land. Among the players who like Olympique Lyonnais a lot: Ellyes Skhiri. The midfielder could be a very good pick since he is at the end of his contract with Cologne. Already wanted last winter, the Tunisian has no shortage of proposals to continue his career. If OL is not one of his first choices, the Rhodanians are in any case doing what is necessary on their side to reverse the trend.

According to information from journalist Rudy Galletti, OL have just offered the Tunisian international a contract until 2026. The Lyon club thinks it can make a difference in this case despite significant competition from FC Sevilla but also from AC Milan. Two clubs which will play the next Champions League unlike the Rhodaniens. The next few hours will be crucial in this long-standing case for OL. The signing of the 28-year-old Tunisian would have the merit of reassuring about the project and the ambitions of Les Gones. Box to box, the former Montpellier player could do a lot of good for a Lyon workforce which is not lacking in shortcomings. Laurent Blanc wants to be able to count on reliable players and has long validated the profile of Skhiri, who is coming out of three good seasons in Cologne.
