Now guaranteed to evolve in Ligue 1 this season, Olympique Lyonnais traces its route and draws the contours of a workforce that Paulo Fonseca hopes to be the best armed to finish as high as possible in Ligue 1. And with the Europa League which will invite itself to the program, we will have to work on a quality recruitment while making sure not to weaken its workforce. If Alexandre Lacazette and Tiago Almada left and Jordan Veretout is about to imitate him, Lyon must recruit. And Matthieu Louis-Jean, the head of Rhone recruitment does not spare his efforts.

It remains to know the feasibility of the operation. If OL has embarked on the battle, it will have to face many obstacles. First of all financial since OL is always under the scope of its payroll and transfer indemnities. So we imagine the seven -time French champion pay € 20 million to snatch the Argentinian prodigy from Brighton. A loan is therefore a privileged option by Matthieu Louis-Jean and his family.
