According to Foot Mercato, Olympique Lyonnais are considering making a move to sign Arnaut Danjuma (26). The Dutch winger is currently on loan at Premier League side Everton from Villarreal.
In order to get themselves out of the hole they have dug, Lyon are preparing to spend considerably in January. One of the positions targeted is a winger. As reported by L’Équipe, West Ham United’s Saïd Benrahma is a target, as is Danjuma. The Dutch winger has played 15 times for Everton this season, starting six games and scoring two goals.
Danjuma is not playing a central role for Sean Dyche’s side, however, he could at Lyon, who are considering making a bid to parent club Villarreal. OL are looking to launch a loan bid that would include the option to make the deal permanent for €15m. Should the La Liga side ask for more, a straight six-month loan would then be offered. However, it could prove difficult for Lyon to convince Villarreal to break the current loan agreement with Everton to then send Danjuma to the Groupama Stadium.
