Jean-Michel Aulas is actively addressing the Bafétimbi Gomis transfer situation, providing updates on Olympique Lyonnais’ stance. During discussions on the sidelines of the preliminary first leg of the third round of the UEFA Champions League, the president of Lyon reiterated that the club has reached an agreement with Newcastle. However, the final decision rests with the center forward.
Aulas mentioned that the issue revolves around a financial matter and emphasized the need to resolve the unfortunate problem with Gomis. In a Twitter exchange with Pierre Ménès, he asserted that the former Saint-Étienne player had turned down the salary proposal from Newcastle. Despite rumors suggesting a move to Marseille for Gomis, Aulas expressed skepticism, stating, “OM suggests that he can bring Bafé, but I know the situation of OM…”
