While the transfer market opened its doors this Wednesday, the 18-year-old striker who stands out among the most promising and interesting players of his generation in his position will obviously be coveted. Lorient knows this and would have liked to extend it to be able to benefit from its qualities a little longer. But the young man would have other ideas. According to Le Télégramme, he and his entourage would favor a departure abroad and in Germany if possible.
The Bournemouth option (partner of FC Lorient) would also still be on the table according to our colleagues. Olivier Pantaloni and Loïc Féry could be more easily convinced to let him leave if an agreement for a loan until the end of the season at Lorient could be reached. But with a budget close to €50M and a drastic drop in revenue linked to relegation and the TV rights crisis, the Morbihan club may have no other choice than to let him leave for good. this winter. It remains to find an agreement with a wealthy club and an offer in line with its qualities and its potential.
