Olympique Lyonnais is shy on the transfer market … or at least with regard to arrivals. Since the opening of the summer transfer window, OL has only recorded two recruits against seven sales.
In financial difficulty, the Rhone club knows that it must negotiate its intelligent summer transfer window. It is necessary to recruit without spending large sums so as not to attract, once again, the wrath of the DNCG.
In this logic, OL tries to strengthen itself at “low prices”. The arrivals of Ruben Kluivert and Afonso Moreira cost “only” 5.78 million euros. In order not to spend too much, the club also does not hesitate to turn to promising and inexpensive young players.
Tyler Morton, the next target of OL
In order to strengthen its midfielder, Olympique Lyonnais is said to have targeted the young English international hope, Tyler Morton. Capable of playing different posts in the middle, the Liverpool player would like to the Lyon management. The 22-year-old would himself be thrilled by the Lyon challenge as reported
The Times. For his part, The team Even advance that he would have reached a contractual agreement with OL.
In lack of playing time in Liverpool (10 appearances including 5 with the U21 last season), Tyler Morton would therefore have the will to leave the Reds. Only here, aware of the potential of his international hope, Liverpool would claim a sum of 9 million euros from OL. Sum that the Rhone club judges too high at the moment. Case to follow.
