Foot OL – OL: 45ME for Guimaraes, Lyon cracks! – Olympique Lyonnais
Solid despite the poor current results of OL, Bruno Guimaraes is closely followed by Arsenal in particular.
According to the indiscretions of the English press, despite his desire to continue at OL, the interest of the Gunners would titillate him all the same, especially now that Juninho is gone. For the moment nothing is done and Jean-Michel Aulas does not intend to part with it. And above all, no offer or approach from any English club, since the name of Newcastle has also been mentioned, has actually been made. Nevertheless, the threat is sufficient to respond to a reaction from the Lyon staff. This is announced by transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, who believes that OL want to definitively resolve a possible Bruno Guimaraes problem. The Rhone leaders have thus offered an extension of contract until 2026 for the Brazilian midfielder, who has taken note of it and should respond to it soon.
OL claim 45 million euros
Situation of Bruno Guimarães. OL will accept no less than € 45m in fees to sell Bruno in January, which is certainly not easy. OL are also offering him a new contract until 2026 but there is no agreement yet. ?? #OL
Arsenal have been following him for a long time – there is still nothing for the January window.

OL’s current situation does not necessarily encourage optimism, especially since the player wants to compete in the Champions League discovery upon his arrival in the Rhône. But hope is there, especially since there is not yet fire at home OL, since his current contract runs until June 2024. This is why, for lack of agreement, Jean-Michel Aulas would be in a strong position to ask for a large sum of money, and the journalist estimates that a price of 45 million euros will be necessary to crack the Lyonnais. An amount necessary, because a part – 20% – will be donated to Athletico Paranaense, his previous club. But for the moment, OL are far from considering a departure for a player on whom Peter Bosz is counting, even if there is clearly a lack of money in the coffers to strengthen the team in other sectors as well.
