According to Corriere dello Sport, the result of Olympique Lyonnais's match against Fenerbahçe could have significant implications.

The performance further demonstrated Fofana's quality, making it increasingly difficult for Olympique Lyonnais to part with him. However, financial pressures are forcing the club to make tough decisions. French media reports that Fonseca's Olympique Lyonnais must achieve significant cost reductions. In short, Olympique Lyonnais would be open to negotiations if they receive an offer of €35 million.

This fee would not be an obstacle for Roma. The real challenge is not the player's transfer cost, but Roma's wage bill constraints. Roma needs to keep its annual spending on player salaries between €10 million and €12 million.
