Olympique Lyonnais have reportedly set their sights on Louis Leroux, young midfielder of FC Nantes. The left-footed player, trained at Nantes, has already played nearly 50 professional matches. According to information from Foot01, the young midfielder would be the real favorite of Matthieu Louis-Jean, the Lyon recruitment chief. Left-footed, versatile, able to play as a leader, on one side or even in defense, Leroux checks many boxes. His value would be around 12 million euros. However, nothing is signed, nothing is even negotiated. For now, we are talking about a real interest, but still far from concrete. And OL is not alone in the running: AS Monaco would also have taken some information. The Lyon plan would rely in part on a possible descent of FC Nantes to Ligue 2, to pick up the pieces at a lower cost. But the Canaries, they intend to bounce back with their young talents. In short: the file is far from closed. The story is just beginning. And the Nantes locker room, we imagine, will have something to say.
