Olympique Lyonnais has not yet overcome the DNCG obstacle, since the interview was postponed to the end of June, to allow OL to finalize certain planned sales, such as the LDLC Arena to Jean-Michel Aulas (for €160 million) or the Reign women’s franchise (in exchange for €53 million). But this in no way prevents the Rhone leaders from moving forward with their summer transfer window.
For example, we revealed to you the trail of the Malian defender of Braga, Sikou Niakité. But it is also offensively that OL is looking to strengthen itself, while waiting to see if certain departures will materialize. According to our information, the Lyon club is in negotiations with Naples for the loan of Jesper Lindstrom (24 years old).
Lindstrom motivated to join OL
The two clubs are discussing and certain sources at Napoli announce an oral agreement close to being reached, on the basis of a loan with a purchase option. The latest discussions concern precisely this option, which could take the form of a purchase obligation, the amount of which would be around €20 million. The attacking midfielder, for his part, has agreed to join Lyon.
This would be a very good recruit for the finalist of the last Coupe de France. Certainly, Lindstrom disappointed at Napoli, where he was transferred last summer. But the Danish international, aged 24, had won over observers during his two seasons at Eintracht Frankfurt. In Italy, things were made more delicate with a season that had become complicated, with 3 different coaches. Ready to quickly relaunch elsewhere, he now has a very good chance of joining OL.
