Looking for offensive reinforcement, Olympique Lyonnais could achieve a nice coup by obtaining the loan of Arnaut Danjuma for the rest of the season. The Dutch winger was estimated at 50 million euros a year and a half ago.
After its two Brazilian recruits (goalkeeper Lucas Perri and defender Adryelson), and after the departures of Rémy Riou, Jeffinho and Tino Kadewere, OL could afford a winter recruit in the offensive sector. Arnaut Danjuma has been in the sights of Les Gones for some time and, as indicated Football transfer window Tuesday, the 26-year-old Dutch winger was seduced by the idea of continuing the season between Rhône and Saône. He hopes to get back on track to have a chance of being part of the Oranje group for Euro 2024.
Until recently, the player trained at PSV was still being courted by major clubs from the Old Continent. After a good 2021-2022 season at Villarreal (16 goals in 34 matches), the player was estimated at 50 million euros per Transfermarkt. The Yellow Submarine even hoped to obtain the equivalent of the striker’s release clause set at 54 million euros.
Finally, Arnaut Danjuma (he goes by his two first names, his last name being Groeneveld) was loaned to Tottenham a year and a half ago, but without managing to establish himself (12 matches, 2 goals). He hasn’t done much better at Everton this season (14 matches, 2 goals). The Toffees must also agree to break the player’s loan and the Lyon leaders hope to get him back on loan with a purchase option for 15 million euros.
Arnaut Danjuma (Villarreal, on loan to Everton) is seduced by OL. The project interests him as the prospect of regaining playing time before Euro 2024. https://t.co/oxPaHKHU8G
