The team will have to face additional challenges with the departure of Emanuel Vallance, the physical preparer who had contributed to the rise of OL, towards the club of Toulouse.

At the same time, negotiations are under way for the transfer of Georges Mikautadze from OL to AS Roma. OL would ask for EUR 20 million for the player, while AS Roma would offer EUR 18 million.
