Adryelson, OL defender (credit: David Hernandez)
Not necessarily wanted at OL, Adryelson found a way out. The Brazilian defender headed to Belgium on Monday to undergo his medical examination and commit to Anderlecht for the next six months.
The file of one will decant that of the other. In mid-January, Thiago Almada et Adryelson are linked, although they will never cross paths in the OL jersey. Having done the double with Botafogothe two players are today in the waiting room at the Lyon club. As explained a little earlier, the Argentine midfielder arrived in Lyon on Friday and met his future teammates on Monday before the training session.
Only, to be able to put on the crampons, Thiago Almada must wait for Adryelson to officially leave OL and it's only a matter of hours. At the time of the presentation in the Lyon locker room, the Argentinian was unable to greet his ex-teammate at Botafogo because the defender was already no longer in the capital of Gaul.
-Medical examination and signing of the contract this Tuesday
Adryelson was no longer really wanted at OL, and it was no secret to anyone. Not in Pierre Sage's plans, he was against taking a place as an extra-community member which today blocks the arrival of Thiago Almada. All parties were therefore looking for a way out and it will be found in Belgium, as announced a few days ago. After the agreement betweenOL et Anderlecht on the basis of a loan with option to buy, Adryelson gave the green light to join the Jupiler League, as advanced by the local journalist Sacha Tavolieri. The Brazilian flew to the flat country on Monday and will have his medical examination during the day before committing to the Mauves for six months, and more if there is an affinity.
