A juicy deal for OL which will recover 17 million euros in transfer compensation in this operation. The midfielder was no longer a first choice in Pierre Sage’s eleven. Cesc Fabregas was able to convince him by offering him a central role in the Como project.

OL is looking for liquidity
After Anthony Lopes, another Gone trained at the club is packing his bags. Revealed during the Final 8 in Lisbon in 2020, where OL reached the semi-finals, Caqueret has lost credit since the arrival of Pierre Sage, where he was now fifth in the hierarchy behind Matic, Tolisso, Veretout and Tessmann , the time has come for a revival for the man who has 24 caps with the French junior team.
In Ligue 1, his last start dates back to October 20, against Le Havre (4-0 victory). Since then, in the championship, he has had to be content with coming on at the very end of the match against Nice on December 1 (4-1 victory).
The sale of Caqueret would be good news for OL’s accounts. Under the influence of an administrative demotion by the DNCG, John Textor’s club is looking for cash.
