The observation was already there last summer, it is even more so since the DNCG verdict, purely and simply threatening the club with a move to Ligue 2. During the winter transfer window, OL will have to sell to exit head above water financially.
Whether it is Malick Fofana, Gift Orban, but also, perhaps above all, Rayan Cherki, Olympique Lyonnais knows that it will have arguments to make throughout the month of January. At the same time, another quality player could leave the ship shortly: Georges Mikautadze.
Juve could try a loan with obligation to buy
The rumor comes to us from the other side of the Alps, more precisely from Tuttosport. For our colleagues, Juventus Turin will look for a luxury replacement for Dušan Vlahović during the winter transfer window. If Joshua Zirkzee, in decline at Manchester United, is apparently the priority target of the Bianconeri, the former of Parma and Bologna, Juve would also be thinking of Georges Mikautadze.
It must be said that the Georgian international, after a very notable Euro 2024, has played little since he returned to Lyon (4 starts, 2 goals in Ligue 1). A loan with a purchase obligation of 20 million euros is mentioned. To find his current teammate at OL, Nicolas Tagliafico?
Pure northerner, who prefers a good National match with USBCO to the rivalry between RC Lens and LOSC. Fan of big atmospheres above all, from ASSE to OM via Strasbourg. To arms!
