After Reading, O.L., PSG and Bordeaux, also Stuttgart seem interested in Nancy defender Sébastien Puygrenier.
According to french sources Lazio are interested in O.L. midfielder Kim Källström. The negotiation seems extremely difficult as the french club is not too convinced to yeld the player and Everton are also keen on the Sweden national.
O.L. wingback Fabio Grosso has declared about the rumours concerning a possible transfer to Juventus: "When such a club is interested in you, you must be proud, but I have a long contract with O.L. and I am fine in Lyon; if I think at the future I must admit that I wouldn't dislike to play in the spanish Liga"
O.L. will probably win their seventh title on a row, but it won't probably be enough for trainer Alain Perrin to keep his place; chairman Aulas doesn't like to fire a trainer during the season, but he has already expressed his disappointment for the tean's performances in the UEFA Champions League and knows that Perrin doesn't have good relations with the team's stars, expecially Benzema. His most probale substitute is actually former Juventus' Didier Deschamps.
O.L. have decided not to extend Patrick Mueller's contract, that will expire at the end of the season. The 31 year old defender, actually injured, has declared to french and swiss medias that in december the club had pronised him to extend his deal for one or two more seasons.
