At the end of his contract next June with Olympique Lyonnais, Houssem Aouar is free to discuss with the club of his choice. Betis, in the ranks for many months, sent a proposal to the French midfielder.
Aouar should leave OM next summer.
Unless there is a surprise, Houssem Aouar (24) will leave France in the coming months. In selection as in club. Indeed, it is rumored that the midfielder, a French international since 2020, has taken steps to change nationality in order to wear the colors of Algeria. He should thus turn his back on his native country but also Olympique Lyonnais, with whom he remains at the end of his contract until next June.
A €17.5 million contract from Betis
Who says end of contract in six months says… possibility of discussing with the team of his choice since January 1st. Le Gone had also affirmed last October that he had already agreed with several formations for a transfer before the start of the current exercise. It was a stressful transfer window for me. But I agreed with most of the clubs that came forward. (…) Unfortunately, OL could not come to an agreement with any of the interested clubs , he explained in L’Equipe. A fact that has now changed since the Rhone leaders no longer have a say.
Moreover, a club has already returned to the charge with a concrete proposal to allow Aouar to leave his cocoon. According to Revelo, Betis, already on the lookout for many months to reconstitute the Lyon duo with Nabil Fekir, has transmitted a five-year lease, i.e. until June 2028, with the key, a net annual salary of 2 .5 million euros. The Andalusian formation agrees to pay a signing bonus of 5 million euros to convince the Blue to cross the Pyrenees. In total, Aouar can claim a contract valued at 17.5 million euros with the Verdiblancos.
Aouar could wait
In distress for more than a season, will Aouar accept the Svillian proposal? A priori, the OL playmaker will take his time. Because despite its current difficulties, are very flat profile. If the Arsenal train seems to have passed, teams with greater financial means than Betis, such as Benfica or Nottingham Forest, are still in line to enroll him. In Italy, Roma is also on the lookout to try to recover it, as early as this winter if possible. It’s up to Aouar to make the decision to finally find his best level, which he hasn’t displayed for a long time.
