5 Lyon Players That Premier League Clubs Will Be Hoping To Sign Following Their Relegation

Lyon have been relegated to the French second division after a ruling from the National Directorate of Management Control (DNCG).

However, a decision earlier this week confirmed Lyon’s relegation, subject to an appeal. If the ruling stands, there could potentially be a fire sale on the cards.
