Rayan Cherki Transfer from Olympique Lyonnais to Nottingham Forest
Lyon's president John Textor wanted to sell Rayan Cherki to Nottingham Forest, leveraging his business relationships with them. Textor even attempted to deter Manchester City by setting a price of 60 million euros, including bonuses, for Cherki. However, Manchester City's determination to conclude the transfer quickly led to resumed negotiations between Lyon and Manchester City, resulting in Lyon securing at least 40 million euros from the deal.
All clubs linked to R. Cherki, alongside Nottingham Forest, according to TransferFeed data.
