OL will have to make strong choices this summer during the transfer window. Among the players likely to look elsewhere: Castello Lukeba. The player understood the message.

In Lyon, it’s time to take stock. The past season has left its mark and will once again have been very disappointing. During the next exercise, OL will not play in any European competition. A problem for his finances but also for the ambition of some of his players. This is the case of Castello Lukeba. The nugget from the Rhone sees big for his career and does not intend to waste time. His desire: to compete in Europe, something he will not be able to do at OL. Lukeba is very courted and is apparently no longer against an imminent departure from Les Gones, knowing that his training club is aiming for at least one big sale this summer. At 20, he could therefore take the plunge. Regarding OL, the club is not closed to a departure from its jewel either, believing that the time has come to make a good operation.

Lukeba, OL ready to make a sacrifice

According to information from Progress, OL want to replenish their coffers and are willing to make sacrifices. To sell Lukeba, the Lyon management expects nearly 35 million euros. It is said that Leipzig and two English clubs have approached Olympique Lyonnais to secure the services of the 20-year-old crack, still under contract until 2025. The media specifies that discussions are currently taking place concerning a sale by Lukeba. A Lukeba who is not closed to the idea of ​​leaving and who validates the destinations about him. In addition to playing in Europe, the central defender would like to give himself every chance of integrating the French team in the medium term. There will be no shortage of deadlines, between Euro 2024 and the 2026 World Cup. In any case, the more the hours pass and the more Castello Lukeba moves away from Les Gones. His loss would be important in the eyes of the supporters and will necessarily have to be filled.
