Foot OM – OM: Marseille revolves around a Lyon defender

If Lyon and Marseille are regularly cited as having a common track during the transfer window, this time it is a young OL player that OM have seriously supervised in recent months.

The Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais recruiting cells sometimes have common ideas, and very often during the transfer window the interest of the two Ligue 1 clubs for the same footballer is mentioned. But this Saturday, this is not the case, since it was this time OM who would have cast a very attentive look at a young OL defender, namely Melvin Bard. A pure product of the Lyon training center, and an international tri-color among young people for two years, the 19-year-old defender has a contract until 2022 with the club of Jean-Michel Aulas.

But if for the moment, Rudi Garcia is not asking a lot of Melvin Bard, Olympique Lyonnais does not seem to want to let go. This Saturday, Le Progrès explains indeed, that from this winter transfer window Jean-Michel Aulas refused a transfer proposal from the Stade de Reims. But OL can expect other solicitations since Frankfurt and even more Olympique de Marseille have several times supervised the Lyon defender whether in Youth League or in N2. However, on the Lyon side, there are no plans to give up Melvin Bard, and OM can a priori drop the case concerning the side of OL. Even if he has not yet been able to show his qualities at the highest level, the 19-year-old defender is an asset on which Lyon counts. Spread the word.
