OL have offloaded the significant salaries of Boateng, Thiago Mendes, Dembélé and Aouar and now hope to get Reine-Adelaide out.
Under the supervision of the DNCG, Olympique Lyonnais is obliged to maintain a financial balance during this summer transfer window, particularly in terms of its payroll. For the moment, the financial policeman of French football must be rather satisfied with the start of the transfer window of Gones, who offloaded the XXL salaries of Jérôme Boateng, Houssem Aouar and Moussa Dembélé, at the end of the contract. Thiago Mendes has also packed his bags as the Brazilian was sold to Qatar for €5m.

A good start to the transfer window for OL in terms of departures… and it’s not over. According to information from the Olympique & Lyonnais site, John Textor’s club is now making the departure of Jeff Reine-Adelaide a priority. If he has not leaked, the salary of the former Arsenal and Angers midfielder is impressive and Laurent Blanc does not count at all on “JRA” for the coming season. Therefore, it is a priority for Bruno Cheyrou and Vincent Ponsot to find a way out for him in order to free up more payroll and allow more financial latitude in the direction of arrivals.
Jeff Reine-Adelaide pushed to leave OL
With the arrival at the club of Skelly Alvero from Sochaux and that to come of Renato Tapia, the traffic jam will in any case be too important for Jeff Reine-Adelaïde in a position where OL can also count on Corentin Tolisso, Maxence Caqueret or the young Mohamed El Arouch. It remains to be seen which club will position itself on the midfielder of Olympique Lyonnais, who did not really burst the screen during his loan to Troyes. He has one year left on his contract with Les Gones, who should not get a big transfer from the upcoming departure of Jeff Reine-Adelaide.
