It’s called the joys of timeshare. Bought 40% by Bournemouth a few months ago, Lorient has since experienced an upheaval, particularly in its transfer window. Last January, the Merlus dropped Dango Ouattara against 20M in Bournemouth. And this time, the Cherries have decided to do Lorient a favor.
Several weeks ago, we revealed to you exclusively that Bournemouth wanted to offer Romain Faivre and then lend him to Lorient. The OL player had managed to get back on the side of Les Merlus and the English club therefore wanted to get their hands on it while allowing Lorient to keep it for another year. According to our information, this deal is about to be completed. Romain Faivre will go well to Bournemouth against 16M euros and be loaned to Lorient for a season. OL recover a good sum which will do good while the DNCG blocks the transfer window of the Rhone club.
