Despite his first appearance of the season at Le Havre (0-4 victory) on October 20, Lyonnais Warmed Omari remains far in the hierarchy established by coach Pierre Sage. The situation of the central defender has not escaped Montpellier, which is trying to obtain the loan of the former Rennais.
Thanks to the Europa League and the sequence of matches, Pierre Sage can afford to carry out regular rotations. The Olympique Lyonnais coach wants to involve as many players as possible. And yet, this method does not benefit everyone within the Gones squad. Arriving on loan this summer, Warmed Omari only made a small appearance, a total of seven minutes played in Le Havre on October 20. We can easily guess the frustration of the central defender who Pierre Sage asks to return to the level seen in the France Espoirs team.
Without rhythm, the player loaned with an option to buy (10 million euros) by Stade Rennais will have difficulty meeting the challenge. Its progress will perhaps require a new start, hence the initiative of Montpellier. According to information from Mohamed Toubache-Ter, the current red lantern of Ligue 1, who announced the signing of central defender Nikola Maksimovic this Thursday, also began discussions with Olympique Lyonnais to recover the loan of Warmed Omari. Apparently, the Rhone club does not seem to be closing the door.
The loan interrupted this winter?
It remains to be seen whether Montpellier will return to the charge after the arrival of the Serbian international. The insider adds that the MHSC plans to once again strengthen its central hinge during the next winter transfer window. If Warmed Omari's situation does not change by then, all parties concerned could be in favor of interrupting the loan to Lyon. Especially since in Montpellier, the 24-year-old Comorian international would have much less difficulty establishing himself under the orders of Jean-Louis Gasset.
