Bakary Koné Set for Fulham Move as Olympique Lyonnais Exit Looms
Olympique Lyonnais is ready to part ways with Burkinabe defender Bakary Koné before the transfer window closes. The 27-year-old, who has featured in just one match this season, is reportedly on the verge of a move to English Championship side Fulham.
Koné is expected to sign a four-year contract with the Cottagers, and Lyon is set to receive around €2 million from the transfer. After spending several years at Lyon, Koné’s limited playing time this season has led to the decision to let him move on, making room for potential new arrivals at the club.
This move marks a new chapter for the experienced centre-back, who will look to make a fresh start in England.
