Last in Ligue 1, the Rhone club would not be against the departure of two of the highest salaries in its locker room during the winter transfer window.
Silence, Olympique Lyonnais is sinking. Pathetic once again on Sunday evening at the end of the 13th day (0-2) against Lille, for a seventh logical defeat this season, OL are dead last in Ligue 1. Faced with this implacable observation, the Rhone institution seems to the drift. On and off the field. The Blanc-Grosso change of coach was of no use, the locker room is cracking and the leaders, like John Textor, are in denial. At this rate, Lyon is heading to Ligue 2. The battle for survival could be fought without two of the biggest names in the Lyon squad.
Progress advances this Monday that Alexandre Lacazette and Corentin Tolisso, two children of the club, could be sold this winter. Our colleagues assure that management is considering this hypothesis, as it is disappointed and unhappy with the attitude and level of performance of the two internationals. The first mentioned, earns 5.4 million euros per year, with a contract which lasts until 2025, but has only scored three goals this season. A record far from the previous year (27 goals in Ligue 1).

Released from the break on Sunday evening, Lacazette is at odds with his coach and the situation seems explosive. Another element of experience, Corentin Tolisso (29 years old, 28 caps), withdrawn on Sunday evening, does not meet the expectations of his bosses either, he who should be the strong man in the Lyon midfield. A situation sufficient to sell two of its most experienced men, within a poorly thought-out squad that is far too weak in view of the Champions League ambitions announced at the start of the season? OL management is thinking about it.
During the summer, John Textor, who has only made bad choices since buying the club from Jean-Michel Aulas, announced that the best elements would not leave the club. At the end of the transfer window, Castello Lukeba and Bradley Barcola were sold. Alexandre Lacazette and Corentin Tolisso’s turn? Questions remain. For what transfer amount? What talented player would accept the delicate challenge of joining an institution in complete decline? On and off the pitch, Olympique Lyonnais are hard to see. The next few weeks promise to be tricky.
