Adryelson Transfer from Olympique Lyonnais to Anderlecht
Adryelson is officially loaned to Anderlecht until the end of the season with a purchase option set at 6 million euros and 10% on the capital gain of a potential future transfer. The loan is confirmed by Olympique Lyonnais on January 15, 2025.
Adryelson will be loaned to Anderlecht with an option to buy for 5 million euros. The player is expected in Brussels tomorrow to undergo the traditional medical examination, as reported by Dernière Heure.
Anderlecht is reportedly nearing an agreement to acquire Adryelson, the Brazilian defender from Olympique Lyon. The club plans to loan him with a purchase option set at 5 million euros. Initially, Lyon had demanded 8 million euros, but financial pressures have led to a decrease in the asking price. Adryelson is said to be seeking more playing time following his loan spell at Botafogo. Although there is interest from Cruzeiro, CSKA Moscow, and Trabzonspor, Anderlecht is believed to have the best chance of securing the transfer. It is noted that Lyon requires a mandatory purchase option, which could potentially pose a challenge. Adryelson's agents are reportedly searching for an exit strategy for the player, who is currently earning one million euros per year.
Anderlecht and Lyon have reached an agreement for the transfer of Brazilian defender Adryelson. However, there is also interest from CSKA Moscow, Urawa Red Diamonds, and Trabzonspor.
Adryelson is expected to join Anderlecht in the coming days. The 26-year-old Brazilian, who was called up for the Brazilian national team in 2023 for a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay but didn't play, is moving from Olympique Lyon where he barely played recently. He will be on loan for the rest of the season with a purchase option of 5 million euros. Adryelson is right-footed.
Adryelson, a central defender, is returning from a loan at Botafogo and will finish the season at Anderlecht. He is not part of Lyon's plans under Pierre Sage. Anderlecht will have a temporary transfer agreement with an option to buy him for 5 million euros this summer. Adryelson is contracted with Lyon until June 2028. This move will free up a non-EU player spot in Lyon's squad.
