Mercato Mercato – Lyon: Gusto scares the English! – Football

Regarded as a promising young talent, Olympique Lyonnais right-back Malo Gusteau has caught the attention of the Premier League leaders. After Manchester United, Newcastle have been tracking the development of Lyonnais.

At the age of 19, Malo Gusto has already established himself as Olympique Lyonnais’ undisputed starter. Despite Rhone Club’s mixed results at collective level, the right side represented one of those rare satisfactions.

Working individually, the young French talent has obvious qualities and plenty of room for improvement.

MU and Newcastle are watching him…

And unsurprisingly, his profile has not escaped Premier League cadres. In recent weeks, Lyonnais has been in the sights of Manchester United. This Thursday, British media Daily Mail reported that Newcastle are also interested in the services of defender Les Goens, who is under contract until June 2024.

But unlike the January 2022 investment in former Lyonnais Bruno Guimaraes, the Magpies should not be attacking in the winter. Why? Because the price set by OL has seriously cooled Gusto’s suitors this transfer window: 40 million euros. However, there is a good chance that this file will revive next summer…

Gusto pays off big

As Tricolor Lyon’s lease nears its end, the English Curies plan to launch major maneuvers in June. In the event of a satisfactory offer, Leon will not close the door on an exit. However, sportingly, his transfer would be a blow. But XXL could reach a better financial deal with the sale on the prospect of an element trained at the current 8th club in Ligue 1. A case to follow carefully.
