Yankunba Minteh ignites the start of this summer transfer window. The winger would be tracked by several European clubs. Olympique Lyonnais would be ready to break the bank to attract him.
Yankunba Minteh leaves no one indifferent, at least not Everton and Olympique Lyonnais. After his successful loan to Feyenoord (11 goals and 6 assists), the young Gambian attacking midfielder is not expected to stay at Newcastle, with whom he is under contract until 2028.
According to the Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, while Minteh had an agreement with the Toffees, the Lyon leaders would have arrived with a huge offer. OL would have offered more than 45 million euros to the Magpies.
Despite this very good offer, the deal could be very complicated to finalize. Indeed, the Rhone leaders are faced with a major problem. The British tabloid The Sun claims that the 19-year-old left-hander would have refused to start discussions with Les Gones.
The latter would prefer to continue the adventure in the Premier League. In the race for his signature, Everton therefore seems to be holding the rope and could strike a very big blow at the start of the transfer window. To be continued.
