http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-Lyonnais-c40130 return to their chase of Benoit Tremoulinas of Bordeaux – Ligue 1 news
Newly-appointed coach of Ligue 1 giants Olympique de Lyonnais, Remi Garde is looking to make a few changes in the side’s defensive ranks. Defence was a major worry for the Rhone side throughout the 2010/2011 Ligue 1 campaign and the 45-year-old tactician
is now looking to make a few improvements to the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Defence-c38904.
A few weeks ago, Les Gones were linked with a move for FC Girondins de Bordeaux defender Benoit Tremoulinas. The 25-year-old Frenchman has long time been linked with a move away from the Stave Chaban Delmas.
Sell before you buy is the transfer market slogan for Lyonnais this summer. With the club no longer having the resources that were seen in the previous two transfer markets, the club is now looking to fund its summer spending by selling a few players.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 international Jeremy Toulalan has already left for La Liga side Malaga but since then, Lyon have failed to sell any player.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michel-Bastos-c25461 was another player who had been linked with a move away from Stade Gerland. Italian Serie A side Juventus were in pole position for landing the winger but reports in France now suggest that the Turin giants are yet to make
an official bid for the player.
Same is the case with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Yoann-Gourcuff-c37416 from Bordeaux last summer but with Remi Garde looking to keep the youngster,
it seems Lyon will have to sell some other player to make funds for a new signing.
Reports in French media now suggest that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aly-Cissokho-c5313 is getting close to leaving Les Gones this summer with English Premier League side Liverpool the left-back’s speculated destination. The departure of Cissokho would leave a big hole in Lyon’s defence
but it would give the club a great chance of being able to buy Benoit Tremoulinas who has abundant experience of playing in the Ligue 1.
Lyon are expected to get at least 10 million Euros for the transaction of Cissokho to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 which means that the seven-time Ligue 1 champions will have enough money to make a move for Tremoulinas who is also eager to play Champions League football next
season.
