OL will experience the next turbulent transfer window periods. The Rhone club will notably have to replace certain senior players, who will certainly leave the ship.
OL will be forced to sell quite a few players next winter during the transfer market, under penalty of falling to Ligue 2 at the end of the season. John Textor is evaluating the possibilities for his team, while also anticipating possible new arrivals if the financial health of his club suddenly improves. Some of its players are at the end of their contract and should not extend the adventure. This is particularly the case of Nicolas Tagliafico. The Argentinian left side, locker room captain and starter under the orders of Pierre Sage, will therefore have to be replaced. And to do so, OL already have their sights set on an evolving element on the Manchester United side.
OL have an attractive idea, it is at Manchester United
According to the latest information from Caught OffsideOlympique Lyonnais is in fact one of the teams interested in recruiting Tyrell Malacia. The 25-year-old Dutchman has disappointed since his arrival at the Red Devils and is no longer part of Ruben Amorim's project. His repeated injuries have also not worked in his favor but OL want to capitalize on his profile if he was open to an arrival in Ligue 1. In addition to Les Gones, Borussia Dortmund is also in the running to win the bet in this case estimated at just under 20 million euros. As things currently stand, it is difficult to see OL being able to raise such an amount. It remains to be seen whether a loan with an option to purchase is possible for Malacia, still under contract with Manchester United until June 2026. This season with the Red Devils, the former Feyenoord player has only played 2 matches in all competitions. . Starving for a player who still has something under his belt.
