Freshly crowned European champions in Gothenburg (Sweden) after their victory in the final of the Champions League against Chelsea (4-0), the players of FC Barcelona appear on many shelves of the biggest European clubs … including the Olympique Lyonnais.
The Rhone club, which has seen its midfielder lose hair in recent weeks (departure on loan from Marozsan for 6 months in the United States, final departure of Saki Kumagai from Bayern Munich, maternity leave of Sara Bjork Gunnarsdottir), seeks to recruit in that area. And what could be better than positioning yourself on one of the best players of the season, Blaugrana midfielder Aitana Bonmati.
The 23-year-old Spanish nugget, who already has 23 caps for the Spain A team (6 goals) since 2017, has played a big role this season in FC Barcelona’s league-Cup-Champions League treble. Best player in the final in Gothenburg on May 16 (she had also scored one of her team’s 4 goals), the Catalan midfielder, in contract with Barça until 2022, is one of the stars of the season.
OL ready to triple their salary and pay € 500,000 to Barça for their transfer
According to the Spanish media “Diario Sport”, several major European clubs have already positioned themselves to attract the player to their homes, OL and Chelsea in the lead, followed by PSG, Bayern and City. And Lyon would have even made a very generous offer to the player, which would allow her to triple her current salary.
Despite a transfer clause set at 3 million euros, which OL would not be ready to pay, the Lyon club would have offered to pay 500,000 euros for his transfer, which would be historic in the history of women’s football.
But according to Diario Sport, Aitana Bonmati, who arrived at FC Barcelona at 14, would feel very good at the Azulgranas and would not necessarily be ready to leave. To be continued.
