The last 48 hours of this transfer window promise to be particularly animated on the side of Lyon. Financial situation obliges, the Rhone club will have to separate from Georges Mikautadze, yet promised to recover the place of Alexandre Lacazette. A real heartbreaker for Lyon supporters, even if their club will recover around 30 million euros thanks to the sale of the Georgian in Villarreal, as revealed by us.
In the sense of arrivals, there could also be surprises. “”We are in contact with these two players that you mentioned (Taremi and the Spanish side CĂ©sar Azpilicueta), Azpilicueta gave its agreement with Seville FC, but we were in advanced discussions.

We have a few days left to refine the group, which we want competitive for Ligue 1 and the Europa League“Said the Lyonnais sports director Matthieu Louis-Jean, on the sidelines of the draw of the Europa League this Friday.
Buonanotte will land in Chelsea
Among the other targeted players in question: Facundo Buonanotte. The newspaper The team advanced that the Argentinian had been convinced by the Lyon project, and that he wanted to land in the capital of Gaul in the form of a loan.
