a former Brazilian international believes that Luiz Henrique would take “ten steps backwards” if he signed for OL

Former Sao Paulo player Richarlyson believes that OL is not a club suitable for Luiz Henrique so that the latter can progress.

Richarlyson takes out the sulphate. The former Sao Paulo player, who has nothing to do with the Tottenham striker, believes that Luiz Henrique (24) should not join OL.

The former Brazilian international (2 selections in 2008) is convinced that Luiz Henrique would make a bad choice by joining the Rhône. “Sportingly, if Luiz Henrique goes to Lyon, I see him taking ten steps back. Lyon is not a big Ligue 1 club today, it is not a team that will give him the opportunity to improve in order to be able to play for the Brazilian national team In my opinion, he would be a starter for the Seleção, he plays to be a starter for the Seleção,” he confided in the show.

OL-Botafogo, closer than ever

United by the same owner – Eagle Group – Lyon and Botafogo have carried out a series of internal transactions in recent months. Lucas Perri, Adryelson and Jeffinho have thus joined France, even if the latter has already taken the opposite route to return to Brazil during the winter transfer window. If the Luiz Henrique case has still not found a conclusion – even if the player was seen in the stands during the Europa League match against Eintracht Frankfurt – that of Thiago Almada could be resolved in the coming days. Despite the recruitment ban pronounced by the DNCG, OL could bring in the Brazilian through a paid loan.
