With the changes that have taken place within its structure in charge of recruitment, Olympique Lyonnais will rely more on the study of data. And, this will be the case to recruit the long-awaited number 6.
Now in charge of OL recruitment, after leaving a similar position at OM, Matthieu Louis-Jean has his networks, but like everyone else, in 2023, he also relies on data analysis. Presented as the ultimate weapon to unearth nuggets in the transfer window, this scientific and precise study of the players will help Olympique Lyonnais in the quest for its sentinel. The imminent signing of Skelly Alvero can stick with this requirement, except that the Sochaux player will not land at Groupama Stadium in a starting role, but initially as a stand-in. OL have ideas for this number 6 position and even already have a target in their sights, according to Hugo Guillemet.

If he does not know, or does not reveal, the identity of this long-awaited reinforcement at Olympique Lyonnais, the journalist from L’Equipe knows that Matthieu Louis-Jean already has an idea in mind and asked John Textor and his teams to lead the discussions. ” The leaders of OL are currently negotiating with the agent of a priority target, unearthed thanks to a work of dates, whose identity has not filtered “says Hugo Guillemet. A priori, this operation should move forward very quickly, because despite the threats of the DNCG Lyon wants to move forward very quickly during this transfer market. However, at one time or another, Olympique Lyonnais will have to sell players. While Thiago Mendes’ departure to Qatar could bring in up to €5m, it probably won’t be enough.
