Nemanja Matić leaving Olympique Lyonnais?
Côme is keen to sign Lyon's midfielder Nemanja Matic to bolster their midfield this winter. Although Lyon's coach Pierre Sage has been trying to downplay the departure rumors, the Italian club is actively working to bring the Serbian player over the Alps. Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reported that a new meeting occurred in Italy between Côme, currently 16th in Serie A, and Matic's agent to finalize a future contract agreement. The Italian team is also proposing a post-career role for Matic within the club. However, Côme still needs to persuade Lyon, possibly by leveraging the financial situation highlighted by the DNCG, to finalize the deal.
Côme has shown the most advanced interest in Nemanja Matic. According to Sky Italia, Cesc Fabregas is looking to add experience to the newly promoted team. Côme is offering Matic a short contract with the possibility of a post-playing career role within the staff or management. Matic is considering the offers but remains demanding in terms of salary, which might deter the Italian club.
Nemanja Matic, currently playing for Olympique Lyonnais, is attracting interest from Como 1907. Como, currently 16th in Serie A, is looking to strengthen its midfield with the Serbian international.

Como is hopeful that Lyon's current financial difficulties will facilitate the transfer.
Nemanja Matic, who previously played with Cesc Fabregas at Chelsea, is reportedly wanted by Fabregas to bring balance to the midfield alongside Sergi Roberto. Matic, who is favored by Jose Mourinho, has been signed by Mourinho on three occasions (at Chelsea, United, and Roma) and was reportedly pursued for a fourth time last summer. Italian media reports suggest that Matic is in negotiations with Como 1907 about joining their project. Nevertheless, the transfer is expected to be challenging as Matic is currently a regular starter at Olympique de Lyon and is performing well in both Ligue 1 and the Europa League.
