There are many difficulties! Team News: Lyon is still facing difficulties and many players may leave the team

July 10th According to the "Team News", Lyon, who announced the successful appeal not long ago, will stay in Ligue 1& and is allowed to participate in the Europa League, is still facing a series of problems and may be forced to continue to suffer player loss.

The total wages and transfer fees in Lyon's budget for next season will be strictly regulated, and the possibility of completely circumventing these restrictions is slim. The club's creditors are now extremely concerned about daily management and they will be the best guarantee for these restrictions.

Therefore, a list of players for sale that could reach 100 million euros this summer has been submitted, aiming to lower the total wage and raise cash. This list includes Matic, Kaleta, Weiletu and others, and there are two main players who are extremely important in the eyes of head coach Fonseca: Malik Fofana and Pelli.

Staying in Ligue 1 will prevent Lyon from being in extreme weakness in negotiations with buyers, and the team also ensures eligibility to participate in the UEFA Cup. However, this has not changed the club's extremely tense financial situation.

In addition to the above list, at least four players are clearly sought after, making Lyon irresistible: Tolisso, Maitland Niles, Mikautaze and Almada. Almada's situation remains unclear: his loan contract should have ended on June 30. The Argentine player highlights the ambiguity of some players under the Eagle system, and his sports and economic rights may be separated.

Two years ago, Lyon's total salary ranked second in Ligue 1 (160 million euros), and now the goal is to eventually reduce it to 60 million euros. Although this huge effort has begun in recent months and has been helped by Taliafico and Lacazette's contracts expire, it still heralds a large-scale layoff.

This also shows that the type of players that Lyon can introduce in the transfer market in 2025: monthly salary of 200,000 euros (before tax) will become the absolute ceiling. In the next two seasons, the youth training center will only provide supplementary players, which coincides with the "talent trough period", which is not good for the club. Nevertheless, the club's CEO Greene said Wednesday night: "We hope to fight for the European arena again next season."
