Jordan Veretout, a 31-year-old midfielder, is poised to join Lyon. Veretout, who was a key player for Olympique de Marseille last season, found himself out of favor following Roberto De Zerbi's appointment as head coach. Although he was initially linked with Rennes during the summer transfer window, he is now on the brink of moving to Lyon. The clubs have settled on a transfer fee of 4 million Euros, with additional bonuses and a percentage on any future resale. Veretout is currently undergoing his medical examination and is anticipated to sign a two-year contract.

Jordan Veretout is set to leave Olympique de Marseille after two years. Despite having one year left on his contract, he is not in the plans of coach Roberto De Zerbi. An agreement has been reached for his transfer to Olympique Lyonnais for 4 million euros excluding bonuses. His wife, Sabrina, announced his departure from Marseille on social media with a farewell message.

Lyon is interested in signing Jordan Veretout to strengthen their midfield after Orel Mangala's departure to Everton. Veretout has been in continuous contact with Lyon's management since last Friday. A contractual agreement has been reached between the player and Lyon, but Veretout must agree to a significant salary reduction. Veretout requested Marseille to cover the salary difference, but Marseille refused. Additionally, Lyon's second offer to Marseille is far from meeting Marseille's expectations, causing a deadlock in the deal.

Jordan Veretout has agreed to a two-year contract with Olympique Lyonnais. He has accepted a significant salary reduction to join Lyon and hopes that Marseille will compensate part of this loss. Negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, with Marseille initially wanting to sell the player for 8 million EUR. Lyon has sent a second offer to Marseille on Monday.
