To support his remarks, the 34-year-old player also pointed out that he had found playing time since “Laurent Blanc is his trainer” and “Things are going very well” for him. The former PSG coach seems to have put his trust in the former Bayern Munich manager since he settled on the Gones bench (4 starts in 5 games).

In recent days, a rumor had however agitated the social networks. Foot Mercato claimed in fact that the leaders of OL intended to separate from the German during the winter transfer window. This operation would have made it possible to relieve the finances of the club by saving a salary which weighs heavily in the Lyon treasury. The other objective would be to make way for a younger player to prepare the future central hinge of OL.
