Mohamed El Arouch is seen as the biggest nugget in the Lyon training center. Nevertheless, the young player does not yet have a chance in the first team and the transfer window could still block his horizon at OL. A godsend on the side of Marseille.
Will Mohamed El Arouch’s career at OL end with a triumph in the 2022 Gambardella Cup? This final against Caen had shown everyone the talent of the young 19-year-old player. Scorer that day, he had given enough pledges to have his chance in the first team. The Lyon supporters thought so, the staff much less. Ignored by Peter Bosz, he had barely more opportunities with Laurent Blanc. The latter offered him 2 games and 40 minutes to express himself. It was in Angers in Ligue 1 and against Grenoble in the Coupe de France last February. But since then, it’s been a dead calm.
OM threaten OL for El Arouch
Something to frustrate the young midfielder, especially since OL are recruiting in their playing sector. The young Parisian Mahamadou Diawara has already arrived from PSG with the promise of playing time as a pro. OL are still targeting Ellyes Skhiri (Cologne) and are close to signing 20-year-old Japanese Kuryu Matsuki. Suffice to say that the competition promises to be provided for El Arouch and risks preventing him from integrating the professional group.
OM are still keeping an eye on Mohamed El Arouch.

There are all the elements to push him at the start and that’s good because he has a base: OM. The Marseillais dream of stealing it from the Lyonnais as confirmed by the very informed insider GuilDT. ” OM still keep an eye on Mohamed El Arouch “, he posted on Twitter. Bad news for Lyon supporters, big fans of the player, but a good move for OM. The Marseillais lack a young talent in the midfield. The technical qualities of El Arouch, both dribbling and passing, would make him an ideal successor for Dimitri Payet. The alert is therefore maximum for OL who still have El Arouch until 2025.
