A year later, the name of Malick Fofana, born in 2005 and currently playing for Lyon, is back in the news at Roma.

Standing 169 cm tall, the Belgian-born player prefers to play on the left flank, an area of ​​the pitch where the Giallorossi are looking for reinforcements.

The French club’s talent was already in Frederic Massara’s sights last season and could now become one of the most intriguing ideas to improve Gian Piero Gasperini’s attacking lineup.

As Corriere dello Sport reports, Lyon values ​​their star player at around €30 million, a figure that requires some consideration and necessitates balancing incoming and outgoing players.

The Belgian left winger has started just nine Ligue 1 games this season, due to ankle problems that have hampered his performance.

Overall, Malick Fofana has played 921 minutes, scoring two goals and providing one assist.

In short, it hasn’t been a stellar season for the 2005-born player, but Lyon believes in him, and snatching their star player will require a significant offer.
