OL Mercato: Peter Bosz praises Nicolas Tagliafico
Olympique Lyonnais completed its first sale of the summer on Thursday. In the pipes for a few days, the transfer of Leo Dubois to Galatasaray has been made official. The right side was threatened by the hatching of the young Malo Gusto left to ensure his succession. In addition to Dubois, Emerson Palmieri had left Lyon following the end of his loan from Chelsea. The Rhone club must therefore find a new left-back. In recent hours, the name of Nicolas Tagliafico has come back insistently. Les Gones coach Peter Bosz spoke about this possible signing. “We lost Emerson, so we need a left-back. Tagliafico is a good player. It’s not for me to answer. Other people take care of that in the club, ”said the Dutch technician.

You have to win matches and for that you have to be more stable. We weren’t stable last season. What I have seen in the last three weeks is that we were more stable, ”assured the former Ajax coach.
