heading to Italy for Rayan Cherki!

Olympique Lyonnais is going through a delicate period and must absolutely reduce its squad during this winter transfer window to avoid a descent into Ligue 2. Several executives have already left the club, notably Anthony Lopes, Jeffinho, Gift Orban, Adryelson, Maxence Caqueret and Wilfried Zaha . In this context, Rayan Cherki arouses the growing interest of a tenor of the Italian championship.

Napoli target Rayan Cherki to strengthen their attack

According to information from Relevo, Napoli have set their sights on Rayan Cherki to compensate for the departure of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Paris Saint-Germain. The Neapolitan club sees in Cherki a player capable of bringing creativity and dynamism to its offensive sector. The French international hopeful, often criticized for his irregularity, nevertheless remains one of the most talented elements of the Lyon squad.

A transfer worth 30 million euros?

Lyon management, under the leadership of John Textor, would have set the price of Rayan Cherki at 30 million euros. A substantial sum which could cool Napoli's enthusiasm, although the Italian club is actively seeking to strengthen its squad for the second part of the season. This amount reflects not only the potential of the young striker, but also the need for OL to maximize its sales in order to redress its financial situation.

A departure with serious consequences for OL

If Rayan Cherki leaves, Olympique Lyonnais would lose a player capable of making a difference on the pitch. His departure would be added to a wave of transfers which is weakening the team. Lyon's leaders will then have to quickly find solutions to fill this void and prevent the team from getting further bogged down in the relegation zone. The next few days promise to be crucial for the future of Cherki and that of OL.
