Lyon interested in Abidal return

French sports paper Le 10 Sport claims that French champions Olympique Lyon are interested in Barcelona left back defender and French international Eric Abidal (29).

The French champions would like to bring their former player, who also received offer from the English Premier League, back to France during the winter transfer window next January.


With Abidal, who left Lyon for Barcelona in the summer of 2007, performing well since the start of this season, the Frenchman feeling good in Barcelona and a presumed transfer fee of at least 10 million euro°, a return to Lyon seems nevertheless not very likely.

Well, we could use him in a Benzema trade... but than who would LB? with sylvinho probably leaving, we could use Caceres, but he didnt play much this season... he should get more playing time to be ready to maybe replace abidal.

can they pay his financial demands based on his contract with barcelona?

Will he really accept a step backward?with all respect to Lyon.

Will barcelona consider offloading him?

If you got 1 "No" on any of the above questions it means, this is not happening, not even for benzema sake.

so what do you think 3 "No"s mean?
best answer get a free chating seat in the next match chat application.(dont worry pep, i pay for it).

In my opinion if they want back Abidal; Barcelona should try an ask to get a first option on Benzema for next season because their is going to be a lot of competition from other clubs for him like Real Madrid,Chelsea,Milan.Hopefully Pep would start giving Caceres some playing time at left back now that Abidal is out because he plays their for Uraguay or maybe give Victor Sanchez a shot at left back;that is just my opinion.If anything for next season we should go after a young left back like Emanuelson from Ajax or Bale from Spurs.
