They've got a bullshit deal that flaunts FFP.

Lyon's president has already said that PSG should loan Lyon their best youngsters because their owners also own beIN sport and the French league isn't a good package if it's not competitive. So this sounds fecking well dodgy.

Perhaps it's some shady off the books arrangement. Or he's just a stupid cnut. Actually, even if it's the former, he'd still be a stupid feckin cnut.

The money part is one thing, but I recall Mbappé saying when he joined PSG that the best French players should play in France. If Aulas’ view is that if Ndombele has to leave Lyon, he wants him to stay in France, then I appreciate that.

France produces more talent for other leagues than most at the moment, and their league needs to increase its profile.

If Brandt and Thorgan are coming then...
Brandt has blossomed more centrally this season. Thorgan and Sancho on the wings for sure. Reus has been playing as #10 with Gotze false 9 so don't know what will happen there, if they'll have Reus as the #9 and Brandt as #10 instead or Reus and Brandt both in midfield with either Delaney or Witsel behind them (might be a bit too offensive).

Sounds like a lot of central players.
