Olympique Lyon have shown strong interest in Eseosa Sule, a young Nigerian forward who has been outstanding for West Bromwich Albion’s U21 side.
Sule has scored 7 goals and provided 2 assists in 18 appearances, drawing attention with his performances.
His impressive form has not only attracted Lyon but also Premier League clubs such as Newcastle United and Brentford. With Sule’s contract set to expire in June, interest in the player is expected to grow even further.
Lyon, one of the most serious contenders for his signature, have been monitoring the player for quite some time. The French club believes that his pace and goal-scoring instincts make him a perfect fit for their squad, and that he could further develop his potential in Lyon.
However, the competition is fierce. English clubs are also keen on the talented forward, which could make the transfer more difficult for Lyon.
Meanwhile, West Brom are still in talks with Sule over a contract extension. Although the player has not yet agreed to a new deal, there is still time until June for negotiations to progress.
A product of Celtic’s youth academy, the young Nigerian has been steadily improving since the beginning of his football journey, showing consistent development at each level.
