Marseille President shuts door on Nicolas N’Koulou to Lyon links

In an interview with La Provence, Marseille President Vincent Labrune attempted to shut down Lyon attempts to sign OM central defender Nicolas N’Koulou. 

The Cameroonian international is a player who Lyon President Jean Michel Aulas had recently admitted was someone “we have been following for a long time”.

Labrune, however, had the following to say on the matter:

“In the same way that PSG do not have the €100m to buy Lacazette, Lyon do not have the means to buy N’Koulou… Unfortunately for them! It is simply a debate among journalists who have nothing to report on at the moment. N’Koulou won’t go to Lyon, nor will he go anywhere else.”
