I wouldn't go rushing in to buy someone that hardly been a starter for Benfica, when we need a player to step right in that still has room for improvement.
Big dip compared to the 14/15 season. His lack of goals last season was one of the reasons Lyon never challenged for the title and just got CL footie due to beating Monaco late on.
There's nothing to say he won't follow the same fate. Giving Halilovic a chance to impress would have been a smarter more IMO. I guess they have money to burn like most of Europe.
That's crazy, if true. They sell Halilovic for €5m and pay that for him. Doesn't seem like smart business (regardless of any clause). Turan all over again?
