00:07Lyon could decide to retain the 21-year-old during this transfer window.
00:14Despite interest from David Moyse's side, no deal has been finalised, contrary to reports
00:20in France.
00:21Lyon's financial struggles have been well documented.

00:30company led by John Texter, is set to receive 33 million euros plus add-ons from the sale
00:37of Butterfogo star Luis Henrique to Zenit St Petersburg.
00:42With Lyon holding the sporting rights to Henrique, they'll pocket the fee, reducing the pressure
00:48to sell Nouammar.
00:50Nouammar, who has made 19 appearances this season, could now remain with Lyon as their
