OL accepted an important offer for a French talent

Olympique Lyonnais has accepted an offer from an Italian club for one of its pillars.

The summer market of theOlympique Lyonnais was ambitious. Although numerous recruitments were made the previous season, some players like Mikautadze joined the team this summer. However, OL is facing financial difficulties. The group posted a net loss of 25.7 million euros for the financial year ending June 30, 2024. These accounts are based on several “assumptions”, as indicated in their press release. They include a planned contribution of “ 75 million euros by the end of December 2024, via equity and/or revenue from the sale of players belonging to clubs in the Eagle Football Holdings group “. Therefore, departures are planned.

Currently, virtually no player at Lyon is considered untransferablee, and everyone can leave the club if an interesting offer arises. Players most likely to leave include Cherki, Fofana and Mikautadze, who are attracting interest on the European scene. However, according to L’Équipe, Lyon has reached an agreement with Italian club Como for the transfer of midfielder Maxence Caqueret. The transfer would be estimated between 15 and 17 million euroswith a potential resale clause.

A talent not developed enough

Trained at Olympique Lyonnais, Maxence Caqueret quickly impressed at a young age as a professional. Having become a starter, he was seen as the face of the club and the Lyon team, with a promising future of playing in the biggest clubs in the world. However, despite the potential shown at its beginnings, the player never reached the expected level.

Today, Caqueret is about to leave and does not seem to be part of Pierre Sage’s plans. With only 14 matches played in all competitionshis playing time remains limited. Como’s offer could offer it an opportunity for revival. For now, some details remain to be finalized, but the OL midfielder has reached an agreement with Como. L’Equipe confirms that the player will not be in the squad for the next Ligue 1 match against Brest.
