Malick Fofana Transfer from Olympique Lyonnais to Inter
Lyon’s Malick Fofana is the subject of a five-way transfer war, with Serie A side Inter vying with the Premier League quartet of Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd and Tottenham Hotspur, according to CaughtOffside.
Sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside that Inter Milan are keeping tabs on Malick Fofana's progress. Inter Milan continue to monitor the situation without formal bids. Lyon have set a £50 million asking price for Fofana.
Internazionale is reportedly closely monitoring Fofana's situation along with several other English top clubs. No official offer or negotiations have been reported yet.
Inter is reportedly interested in signing Malick Fofana, with rumors about a possible winter transfer. However, Lyon's director stated that Fofana's plan is to stay at least until next summer, suggesting Inter may have to wait.
Inter Milan has expressed interest in acquiring Malick Fofana during the upcoming winter transfer window. The club is in search of an offensive player who excels in dribbling and can effectively handle one-on-one situations. The competition for Fofana is anticipated to be intense, with Lyon expected to demand a substantial fee for the Belgian international. Inter's interest follows their unsuccessful attempt to sign Ademola Lookman, leading them to consider other offensive options. According to Corriere dello Sport, Inter is enthusiastic about Fofana's profile and is preparing to make a move in January. Lyon, on the other hand, is open to selling if they receive extraordinary offers, though they are content to have retained Fofana after the summer transfer window, where he was linked with several top clubs such as Bayern Munich and Liverpool. Nevertheless, Fofana's commitment to Lyon and their strategic financial planning for the winter window suggest that any potential transfer will necessitate significant negotiations.
