Nabil Fékir Set for New Contract at Lyon Amid Premier League Interest
According to L’Équipe, Nabil Fékir is on the verge of signing a new contract with Olympique Lyonnais. The club’s management is currently in negotiations with the Franco-Algerian midfielder’s representatives to secure a better-paid deal, reflective of his impressive performances during the first half of the season.
Fékir, who signed his last contract in June, is reportedly earning €300,000 gross annually, a figure his camp now considers well below market value given his contributions and growing influence within the squad. His standout displays have not gone unnoticed, with top English clubs said to be monitoring his situation closely.
Lyon is keen to tie down their rising star, and a contract extension accompanied by a substantial pay rise is expected to help stave off foreign interest—at least for now.
