ยูฟ่าเบท has revealed that Chelsea were never close to signing Olympique Lyonnais playmaker Rayan Cergi last summer.
Chelsea added many players to their squad in the recent transfer window. And they have brought in several French players including Axel Disasi, Lesley Ugochukwu and Christopher Nkunku.
That has led to rumors that Chelsea are interested in Cherki to strengthen the team. After showing impressive form, scoring 14 goals and 16 assists from playing 106 matches in all competitions for Lyon.
There is speculation that Chergie may leave Lyon this summer. Because there are less than 2 years left on the contract, with Chelsea being the favorites.
However, Romano said Chelsea had made no progress in discussions over signing Chergi,
But they had been following the player’s situation.
Cherki has started 4 games for Lyon in Ligue 1 this season. But still unable to score a goal or provide an assist at all.
ven though Lyon wants to keep Cherki with the team. However, the media considers that there is a possibility that the player will move teams because his current contract only has 18 months remaining.
After the report came out, Jean-Michel Aulas, president of the Olympic Club, Lyon has responded to questions about the matter via their own online media, stating that they understand that Cherki has news of a transfer. But he sees that the more important thing is that the players will continue to play for the team in the future.
In the past, Chergi has played more games for Lyon since Laurent Blanc took control of the team, with the player taking on the role of being the creator of the game behind the offensive line.
