„Lyon“ club will have another Brazilian in their squad - the negotiations for the acquisition of 23-year-old midfielder Lucas Paqueta have been completed. Gianluca Di Marzio reports that the French team has reached an agreement with „AC Milan“ for a fee of 20 million euros. The Brazilian will head to Lyon in the near future. L. Paqueta joined „Milan“ in the winter of 2019, but after a promising start, he fell into a slump and lost the trust of both the coaches and the club management.
„Lyon“ most likely is acquiring him as a replacement for Houssem Aouar, who, despite being urged by the club's president to stay, has decided to change teams. Only one team is vying for H. Aouar's signature - London's „Arsenal“. „The Gunners“ have already offered 35 million euros, but this offer was rejected. However, it is believed that before the end of the transfer window, „Arsenal“ should add a promising midfielder to their squad.
