Ligue 1 Daily Report - 2026-09-27: Lyon reportedly demand €50m for sought-after Pavel Sulc

Lyon were reported on Sunday to be seeking around €50 million for Pavel Sulc amid interest from several European clubs. The 25-year-old Czech international joined the Ligue 1 side from Viktoria Plzen in August 2025 and contributed 11 goals and three assists in 27 league appearances last season. According to TheHardTackle.com, Aston Villa, Leeds United, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, Como, Lazio, Juventus and Everton have shown interest. Leeds have reportedly made official contact, while Juventus have held exploratory talks over a possible move for the attacking midfielder.

Sulc has continued to attract attention this season despite being in and out of Lyon’s starting line-up. TheHardTackle.com reported that he had supplied three assists in five Ligue 1 appearances, helping Lyon rise to second in the table. CaughtOffside also said Villa and Tottenham were monitoring the player ahead of the winter transfer window, with his ability to operate as a number 10 or on either flank adding to his appeal. Any deal would require a substantial investment, with Lyon’s reported valuation setting the terms for negotiations.

Liverpool were reported on Sunday to be monitoring Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara. The Senegal international was identified by the Liverpool Echo as a potential target after a proposed deadline-day move to Chelsea fell through amid chaotic events involving Everton. The report linked the interest to Liverpool’s need for greater quality and balance in central midfield following the previous season. Camara, who plays for Monaco, was among several midfielders discussed by the outlet as the club considered recruitment priorities during a period of managerial change.

The reported interest comes after Andoni Iraola replaced Arne Slot as Liverpool head coach, with the new manager associated with a direct, high-pressing approach. The Liverpool Echo said Camara was on the club’s radar alongside Roma’s Manu Kone and Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton, although no transfer was confirmed. Monaco’s midfielder therefore remains a reported option rather than an agreed signing. Any move would depend on Liverpool’s recruitment plans and whether the French club were prepared to entertain an approach.
