Two brief appearances in the Europa League, four others, even more starving in Ligue 1. Wilfried Zaha's record since his arrival at OL on loan last summer is catastrophic. At the beginning of December, in Angers, the Ivorian winger played… for one minute. Three more in the derby against Saint-Etienne.
A difficult situation to live with for the former great hope of Manchester United, obviously not exempt from all reproaches, either. Therefore, will Lyon break his loan and send him back to Galatasaray this winter? Hope is slim. Unless…
MLS ready to relaunch Wilfried Zaha?
“There is no possibility of Zaha returning in January. He is currently on loan.” These are the recent comments of Okan Buruk, the coach of Galatasaray, on Turkish television. In other words, either the 32-year-old player stays in Lyon this winter, or he is sold elsewhere.
In fact, the Daily Mail understands that the former Crystal Palace player would have fans in Major League Soccer, the North American championship where a certain Lionel Messi plays. Perhaps very good news for OL who would thus be offloading a far from negligible salary. Especially considering its financial health.
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!
