Lyon in talks to sign Hearts striker Claudio Braga | OneFootball

Lyon are in talks with Heart of Midlothian with a view to sign their Portuguese striker Claudio Braga (26), according to a report tonight from Foot Mercato. The 26-year-old is reportedly valued at €10m by Hearts, with whom he has played a huge part in their Scottish Premiership title push. Braga has logged 14 goals and 5 assists last season.

Talks are reportedly well underway between Hearts and Lyon over Braga, who is tied with the Scottish outfit until 2028. The Portuguese is reportedly keen on a move to France, where he’d be coached by a fellow countryman in Paulo Fonseca.

Les Gones are expected to be busy in the transfer market when it comes to attacking players. As expected, Endrick has rejoined Real Madrid following the end of his loan, and Lyon have cashed in big with Afonso Moreira’s breakout season. The former Sporting Lisbon winger has joined Bayer Leverkusen in a €32m move.
