Lyon Set Hopeful Price on Lazio Linked Playmaker | OneFootball

Olympique Lyon have set a clear price on Rayan Cherki as Lazio ponder a possible move for the talented French playmaker.

The Biancocelesti are still on the hunt for a burst of creativity following Luis Alberto’s departure, having missed out on Manchester United’s Mason Greenwood, and they’ve been in close contact with Sassuolo to try and set up a deal for Armand Lauriente.

Lazio have already picked up five reinforcements in the summer transfer window – Loum Tchaouna, Tijjani Noslin, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, Gaetano Castrovilli and Nuno Tavares – and are looking to cut some unneeded players from the squad, like Mohamed Fares and Toma Basic.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport (via TMW), Lyon want around €20 million for Cherki this summer, a fee considered excessive by Lazio President Claudio Lotito, who is confident that the price will drop in the coming weeks considering that the player has less than a year left on his contract in France.

Last season, the 20-year-old French playmaker scored three goals and provided nine assists in 39 appearances across all competitions.
