Executives of an Olympique Lyonnais in the midst of a crisis, Corentin Tolisso and Alexandre Lacazette could have the possibility of leaving Les Gones during the winter for Saudi Arabia or MLS.
Red lantern in Ligue 1 with only one victory in eleven days, OL could do without Corentin Tolisso (29 years old) and/and Alexandre Lacazette (32 years old) during the second part of the season. As indicated by the RMC correspondent in the capital of Gaul, the two French internationals, returning in 2022 to their training club, could receive offers in particular from Saudi Arabia and MLS.
“Laca”, captain of Les Gones and author of 31 goals last season, had already had contact with Saudi clubs during the summer. The former Arsenal player has decided to stay at his favorite club, but may well agree to go into exile in the coming months. He is the highest paid Lyon player, at 5.4 million euros per year, and his departure would do good to the accounts of John Textor’s club.
Tolisso, for his part, failed to establish himself as the boss of the Lyon midfield last season and, here too, his departure would reduce the payroll of the first team. The world champion who passed through Bayern pockets a little less than Lacazette, 4.8 million euros annually.
