In July, Olympique Lyonnais was added to a list of clubs interested in Yassine Titraoui, a 23-year-old Algerian central midfielder, which also grew to include Salzburg, Crystal Palace, and Panathinaikos. This followed earlier interest in June from clubs such as Marseille, Fenerbahçe, and Brighton. It was reported that Panathinaikos submitted a formal proposal to his club, Charleroi, valued at €7 million plus €1 million in bonuses and a significant sell-on clause. Titraoui, who has 5 caps for Algeria, joined Charleroi in July 2024 and his current contract runs until June 2027. In the 2025/2026 Jupiler Pro League season, he made 50 appearances, scoring 5 goals and providing 1 assist. His current market value is €7.00m, according to Transfermarkt. According to reports from July 2026, Charleroi's asking price was between €11 million and €11.5 million after a reported offer from Hull City of €8 million plus €2 million in bonuses was rejected.
