Faced with the possible departures of Henrique and Nicolas Tagliafico this summer, Olympique Lyonnais has its back. As announced a few weeks ago, and despite the denial of the main interested party, the Rhone club has already concluded the transfer of left back Abner Vinicius from Betis Sevilla.
For Olympique Lyonnais, the summer transfer window has already started. The current seventh in Ligue 1 is having a much more exciting end to the season than expected. Which does not prevent management from working on the workforce for the next financial year. As announced a few weeks ago, the club led by John Textor would have concluded the transfer of Abner Vinicius (23 years old) from Betis Sevilla. Several sources such as journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed an agreement between the two parties.

We were actually talking about an operation worth around 8 million euros. Everything seemed almost complete for the Brazilian who had calmed things down with a denial. “ The truth is that I have no agreementreacted the left side to Estadio Deportivo. I’m at Betis, I’m happy here. I have no agreement. I would love to stay at Betis, but anything can happen. I am happy at Betis. The interest of Olympique Lyonnais? I don’t know. These are things that don’t concern me at the moment. I make sure I feel good at Betis, because I want to stay here. »
Abner Vinicius en approche
Only arriving in January 2023, the former Athletico Paranaense player perhaps did not want to announce his departure so quickly. However, this is the trend that is emerging according to Le Quotidien du Sport which confirms that the 2021 Olympic champion with Brazil will probably be Lyon’s first recruit. The Rhone club, which appreciates his technical qualities and his offensive contribution, has decided to strengthen this left-back position where Henrique will leave free this summer, while Nicolas Tagliafico remains announced as leaving one year from the end of his contract.
