Following a collapsed transfer to Olympiacos, Ludogorets midfielder Petar Stanić, 24, is reportedly being considered by four clubs in Ligue 1. Lyon, Monaco, and Paris FC have all conducted scouting research on the Serbian player. Lorient is the most likely destination, with Marseille also mentioned as a less probable option. Stanić's potential €8 million move to Olympiacos did not proceed due to a disagreement over the payment structure, as Ludogorets had requested the fee be paid in three installments. The Serbian international has two caps and one goal for his country. He joined Ludogorets in July 2025 for a fee reported to be €2.1 million and has a contract with the club until June 2028. Interest in the player increased over the summer, with Coventry City reportedly making an €8 million offer in June 2026, while a €7 million bid from AZ Alkmaar was said to have been rejected that same month. During that time, there were reports of a €10 million asking price. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €3.5 million.
