Disclaimer: I know that it’s been a week now since Hatem Ben Arfa left Lyon for Marseille. Both John and Magnusson have covered this topic very thoroughly, so most of you are probably tired of hearing about it.
But I just can’t let this go. I can’t just delete the “Ben Arfa” category on the [...]
Not Just Yet…

As most of us already know, Hatem Ben Arfa has come to terms with Olympique de Marseille and for some of us, our worst fears have finally been realized. Like an amorous relationship you know just has to end, as much as it may hurt, you know it’s for the best. But HBA’s [...]

Greetings fellow readers. As Inara has been been somewhat busy lately, I thought I’d lend-a-hand and keep the ball rolling. If you’re like me, you need your daily posting like that morning shot of java, or your day just doesn’t feel right.

I Didn’t See This One Coming…
By: Inara | 46 Comments
Word on the street is that Sevilla are very interested in Sebastien Squillaci - so interested that they have already made a €5m offer to Lyon and have come to an agreement with the player. Lyon have agreed to the transfer in principle but want more money from Sevilla.
Say WHAT?
How in the world did this [...]

Lyon have been negotiating with Metz for weeks, but to so many clubs interested, many with late bids, the deal took quite a long time in being crafted. He’s had Europe’s biggest clubs interested [...]

*crickets*
Exactly. Total silence.
This exact time last year, Lyon had so many players whining about leaving (Tiago, Florent Malouda, Eric Abidal, Fred, Alou Diarra). Some where considering it (Juninho, Kim Kallstrom, Gregory Coupet, Remy Vercoutre) while some others were forced out of the club (Jeremy Berthod, Sylvain Wiltord, Claudio Cacapa).
This year…there’s barely any noise. Hatem [...]
Category: TransfersOfficial: Hugo Lloris is a Lyon Player
By: Inara | 13 Comments
It’s done! Lyon have officially announced the arrival of their newest goalkeeper in a press conference. And now that there is no possible way for other clubs to steal Hugo Lloris from under our noses, I can finally get a good night’s sleep (and so can Lloris now that he’ll be joining his BFF Ederson).
