The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-Lyonnais-c40130 coach expects to see some of the players leave Stade de Gerland this summer and has not given up hope on signing long-term targets
Olympique Lyonnais’ transfer window hasn’t really started yet. Although the club has put a few players on the transfer list, none of the players has left Stade de Gerland. Financial constraints have forced Les Gones to sell before they can buy.
Sale of only high value players would help coach, Remi Garde recruit players he feels would do well for the club next season. While talking to RMC, the French tactician confirmed that there will be a number of players who will be leaving OL this summer.
Although Garde admits that there have been contacts with clubs, no firm proposals have been received so far. The arrival of the likes of Clement Chantome, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mamadou-Sakho-c23293 and Benjamin Corgnet – three players, who have been linked with the seven-time champions
of France, depends upon the departure of Hugo Lloris and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michel-Bastos-c25461 according to Garde.
“The names you mentioned potentially interest the club. It is true that a departure of Lloris or Bastos could actually hasten the arrival of one or two players depending upon the number of departures.”
The player who is closest to leaving the Rhone club is team captain http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 international’s departure would create a big void in the squad. However, Remi Garde feels that Remy Vercoutre will do well as a first-choice custodian should Lloris
depart.
“Certainly, priority will be given to Remy Vercoutre, who is familiar with the club. He has the profile to have the heavy task of succeeding http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lopes-c22413, a promising young Portuguese who was not far from participating at the Euros.”
While talking about the futures of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aly-Cissokho-c5313 and veteran defender Cris, Remi Garde said that both players have already been placed on the transfer window. The Lyon tactician is hopeful that the club gets a good output for the left-back while gave a hint
that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cris-c9486 might be playing his last season for Les Gones if he chooses not to leave.
