Lyon put departures on hold until after Champions League play-off second leg | OneFootball

OL have parked outgoing transfers until after their Champions League play-off second leg against Fenerbahçe next Wednesday, according to L'Équipe.

Belgian winger Malick Fofana, coveted by Roma who have yet to make contact with OL, will not leave before Thursday, the day after the tie. The same stance applies to other key players who could be moved on.

Qualification next Wednesday is valued at a minimum of €23m for OL, marking an early turning point in their season and shaping late-window plans.

Even if they return to the Champions League after six years away, the club will still need to sell before 1 September.

Decisions on departures are therefore deferred until the play-off is settled.
