Coveted by Chelsea, the young OL defender would not rule out a departure from the capital of Gaul in the coming months. After having made an unsatisfactory first offer in the eyes of the Rodhanian club, the Blues should quickly return to the charge.
After bringing in Benoit Badiashile from AS Monaco, Chelsea FC could continue to plunder young talent in Ligue 1. According to the very well informed Fabrizio Romano, the London team has indeed set its sights on Malo Gusto , right back of Olympique Lyonnais. At 19, the right-hander is already considered a great hope for tomorrow’s football.
If no agreement has yet been concluded between the two clubs, the affair could quickly be resolved. Fabrizio Romano affirms that the Frenchman is rather open to the idea of discovering the Premier League. Foot Mercato adds that a six-and-a-half-year contract is currently on the table. The desire to bring in Malo Gusto would also come directly from Graham Potter, current Chelsea coach.
Chelsea have made an initial offer for Malo Gusto
It now remains to come to an agreement with the Rodhanian staff. After Lyon turned down the Premier League resident’s first offer, the Blues are reportedly preparing a second offer. RMC note for his part that Manchester United would also be in the vicinity. At present, a departure during the winter transfer window is therefore not yet certain, it will however be very difficult to retain the native of Décines-Charpieu during the summer.
However, if an agreement were to be reached, the sum recovered would do a lot of good for the cash flow of Olympique Lyonnais. Only ninth in Ligue 1, Laurent Blanc’s men will travel next Sunday to the lawn of AC Ajaccio for the 20th day of the championship. A result other than a victory would plunge the Reds and Blues even further into crisis.
