According to revelations from Fabrizio Romano, OL are close to finalizing the arrival of Abner Vinicius from Betis Sevilla, for an amount estimated at around 8 million euros. The journalist even claimed that a contractual agreement had already been found between the defender and the Rhone club.
However, Abner Vinicius was quick to respond publicly to these rumors, strongly denying Fabrizio Romano’s claims. In a message posted on social networks, the 24-year-old categorically denied being close to a transfer to Lyon. This statement casts doubt on this initial information and casts doubt on the accuracy of the famous sports journalist’s comments.
