Huh,just realised I had an account here.
I'm a Lyon fan since 17 years and nobody here takes the " Sun's " article for real.
A 22.5M € bid can't be possible,it would be the scam of a century.
Cissokho was bought for 15M € and after a few good months he started to play poorly and now only a few people think he will ever be able to unleash his " supposed " potential.
When he's not playing at 100% physically he's useless offensively because he has no technique and rely solely on his pace.Don't be fooled by his cross against Monaco.Cissokho is a natural brainless player ( I don't like to bring ill on a player but that's a fact ) , and his crosses rarely helps the team since he rarely picks a target.He just runs and cross for nobody,that's what he usually does.
He's good on 1vs1 when defending but has a rather poor positionning and makes poor decisions overall.
If he improves tactically and stay fit he could become a great player,that's why he still has lots of fans in Lyon.
But we need money,and fast.We made quite a lot of bad deals the past years and now we need to sell some players with high wages.That's why we assumed we would sell him for 8M € before the end of June ( fiscal year last day ) if Bastos wouldn't leave us,and he's still there.
The coach changed and maybe he wants to keep Cissokho,but Aulas wants to give their chance to our young players and Kolo has a good potential to remplace Aly.
I'm pretty sure you can have him for 8-10M €.
