Mohamed Bayo has been linked with a move to Las Palmas. He has held talks with Lille to push for an exit, but the club does not want to let him leave due to a lack of depth up front. Bayo has started a showdown with management to force his departure.

Mohamed Bayo is contemplating leaving LOSC Lille due to his inconsistent playtime. Las Palmas is among the teams interested in acquiring him. Although Bayo is contracted until June 2027, Lille is reluctant to release him during the winter transfer window due to an injury to another striker, Matias Fernandez-Pardo, and potential developments with Jonathan David. Bayo, who began the season strongly by scoring in key matches, has seen a significant reduction in his playtime since November, playing only 31 minutes despite being in full form. His omission from the squad for the match against OM, even with Fernandez-Pardo absent, has intensified his desire to depart. Several clubs, including Angers, Royal Antwerp, Celtic Glasgow, Como, Montpellier, and FC Metz, have expressed interest in the prolific striker, renowned for his scoring ability in limited minutes.
