Announced in the sights of several teams, notably English, Jake O’Brien could well allow OL to realize a nice capital gain. But also at Crystal Palace who had included a percentage.
In the coming hours, OL should have their first recruit of the summer as well as in the defensive sector. With Moussa Niakhatethe Lyon club will offer Pierre Sage the left-handed defender he was waiting for, even if he is not the receiver he wanted. For this profile, will this involve the reinforcement of another center? The defensive sector should experience some additional reshuffles with the desire to get rid of Sinaly Diomande and Dejan Lovren. But also because of the different interests for Jake O’Brien. After a surprise and successful first season at OL, the new Irish international is attracting attention. There was a rumor Juventus Turin and recently others from the Premier League, with Everton or West Ham.
No professional games played with the Eagles
Recruited for one million euros in the summer of 2023, O’Brien could leave the Lyon club for a nice check, enough to realize a nice added value. But John Weaverwho holds the Irish colossus in high esteem, is not the only one to see millions added to the bank account in the event of a sale. Crystal Palace could also have a smile. By selling O’Brien a year ago without even having played a professional match, the Eagles had included a 20% profit-sharing on a potential capital gain. In view of the amounts advanced, this represents a significant sum.
