Uncertain future for Cherki, the jewel who dreams of playing for Madrid

Rayan Cherki’s future seems more outside than inside Olympique de Lyon. According to information from L’Équipe, the 18-year-old promise is questioning whether to continue in the Rhône team, as a result of the lack of opportunities on the part of his coach, Peter Bosz, who did not give him a minute last Sunday in Lyon’s victory against Troyes (0-1).

The fact of not playing in the last game would have been a jug of cold water for Cherki, who did not understand that, with three strikers out of the squad for the African Cup (Slimani, Toko-Ekambi and Kadewere), Bosz did not give him even a minute. Against PSG, on January 8 (1-1), his arrival on the field revolutionized the game and the player had strictly followed the instructions of the medical staff, which had recommended him to increase muscle mass to win more duels on the field.

A year and a half after the end of his contract, Cherki would be rethinking leaving Lyon. Big European clubs have asked about his situation, including Nice, although the attacker’s desire remains to succeed in the club that has formed him. If the situation does not change between now and the end of the season, It is highly likely that the France Under-21 international will leave Lyon in the upcoming summer market.
