They wrapped it all up
This is called anticipation.
On July 1, left side Hassane Kamara, defensive midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin and striker Amine Gouiri had already joined
OGC Nice
.
The Aiglons quickly hit hard, also being loaned to former Monegasque Rony Lopes by Sevilla FC and selling Ignatius Ganago in Lens for € 6M, or Christophe Hérelle in Brest for € 4M.
Lille
did not lag either, even if the record sale of Victor Osimhen in Naples for more than 70M € was slow to come to an end.
The Canadian Jonathan David was there at the start of the season to succeed him, like the Turkish Burak Yilmaz.
In defense, Sven Botman was quickly torn from Ajax to replace Gabriel, who left for Arsenal.
Third club to have finished shopping on the market:
AS Monaco
, which started the season against Nantes (2-1) with its two flagship recruits, Kevin Volland (Leverkusen) and Axel Disasi (Reims).
The farewells of captain Kamil Glik and goalkeeper Danijel Subasic went smoothly.
Best of Osimhen with LOSC (2019-2020)
They are in the rush
Jean-Michel Aulas may say that
Olympique Lyonnais
is not obliged to sell, the rumors persist.
The Catalan press ensures that FC Barcelona does not let go of Memphis Depay.
In England, Arsenal would not have the funds to recruit Houssem Aouar.
And the Jeff Reine-Adélaïde file, stuck between Rennes and Hertha Berlin, goes on forever.
RMC Sport
has revealed that Islam Slimani (32), author of a good season on loan at Monaco, is a concrete avenue if there is a last minute hole to fill.
OL have already formalized the arrival of attacking midfielder Lucas Paqueta (AC Milan) and that of 18-year-old winger Facundo Pellistri (Peñarol), is on the right track according to Aulas.
Lucas Paquetá is LYONNAIS!

The
Paris Saint-Germain
, too, is living its last days of the transfer window in an emergency.
Thomas Meunier has been away from Dortmund for a long time, and right-back Alessandro Florenzi only arrived in mid-September.
In defense, no one replaced Thiago Silva, despite the agitation of Thomas Tuchel for Antonio Rüdiger (Chelsea) and the less and less concrete rumors about Kalidou Koulibaly (Napoli) and Milan Skriniar (Inter Milan).
In the middle too, the names of Tiémoué Bakayoko (Chelsea) and Dele Alli (Tottenham) come back with insistence, but time is running out.
They've done it all ... but stay tuned
No fire at
Stade Rennais
: Edouard Camavinga will discover the Champions League in Brittany.
The Rouge et Noir have completed some files quickly (arrivals of Nzonzi, Terrier and Aguerd), but still have not found a base in M'Baye Niang, promised to OM during the spring.
His successor, Serhou Guirassy, has already stood out with Rennes.
If the goalkeeper position has been managed, with Alfred Gomis taking over from Edouard Mendy, Julien Stéphan is still waiting for another central defender for the rotation.
And a lining to the left side Faitout Maouassa, injured for several weeks, is sought.
But the biggest is made for Rennes
In
Marseille
too, we are almost done.
The long-awaited center-forward, who turned out to be Brazilian Luis Henrique (18), was featured this week.
Left side Yuto Nagatomo, defender Leonardo Balerdi and midfielder Pape Gueye have joined forces with André Villas-Boas.
No arrival is expected yet ... unless Morgan Sanson gives in to the sirens of the Premier League.
Foot Mercato
and the
Téléfoot
channel
ensure that OM anticipates a possible departure by discussing with Arsenal for a loan from Mattéo Guendouzi.

Finally,
Saint-Étienne
has completed its transfer window.
Or almost.
Stéphane Ruffier, removed from the group by Claude Puel, is encouraged to find a point of fall before the expiration of his contract next June.
According to
France Football
, his name was slipped on the side of Dijon.
Wahbi Khazri, also unwelcome, refused requests from Qatari clubs according to
L'Équipe
.
Ryad Boudebouz is in a similar situation.
But these small stones do not bother the Saint-Etienne shoe more than that, which has especially just concluded the sale of defender Wesley Fofana for 40 million euros.
