At the end of the contract with OL in a year and a half, Moussa Dembélé could leave Lyon in the event of a good offer this summer during the transfer window.
The profile of the former Celtic Glasgow player is popular in England, where his name circulated last winter. Moussa Dembélé was notably targeted by Newcastle, who ultimately did not push this track to the end. On the side of the Lyon management, it was in any case out of the question to let Moussa Dembélé slip away after the failure of the Sardar Azmoun track. Next summer, however, the cards will be redistributed and it is possible that Moussa Dembélé will pack his bags in the event of a big proposal. The big offer could come from the Premier League and more specifically from Manchester United, according to the information delivered this weekend by the Daily Mirror.
Manchester United targets Moussa Dembele
Indeed, the British tabloid understands that Manchester United wants to revitalize its attacking sector by removing Cristiano Ronaldo and Edinson Cavani. To compensate for one of these two departures, the management of the Red Devils targeted Moussa Dembélé, author of -only- 9 goals and 3 assists in 22 matches in all competitions under the colors of Olympique Lyonnais this season. Manchester United would like to take advantage of the contractual situation of Moussa Dembélé, who will only have one year left on his contract this summer, in order to recover the OL striker at a lower cost. According to the British media, it will still be necessary to sign a check for the amount of around 30 million euros to sell Jean-Michel Aulas, who is more greedy than ever after completing the sale of Bruno Guimaraes to Newcastle for 50 million euros last winter. It now remains to be seen whether Manchester United, which has no real financial problem despite the Covid-19 crisis, will comply with OL’s requests and accelerate on the Dembélé track…
