Olympique Lyonnais has just recorded a very significant loss in its workforce.
What Laurent Blanc feared has just happened. OL are about to record the departure of one of their best elements, in this case Castello Lukeba. The young central defender is expected on the side of Leipzig.
Lyon could not resist the 4e offer
According to information from the Sports Zone media, Lukeba has already agreed with the German club. The fact that he belongs to the BS Groupe team facilitated the agreement. Within the franchise of the energizing brand, the French back should replace Josko Gvardiol, who is expected on the side of Manchester City.
Lyon have already declined three offers from Leipzig, but they are unlikely to resist the fourth. In the sights of the DNCG for a few weeks, and with a controlled payroll, the Rhone club is obliged to sell, especially if the offer is generous. To the chagrin of his technical staff and supporters.
Lukeba will therefore leave OL after two seasons with the pros. The express rise of this player of Angolan origin is not surprising. From his first steps in the big world, he displayed all his qualities, both technical, physical and mental. The arrival of Blanc at the head of Les Gones also helped him a lot to gain confidence in his abilities.
