Lyon Eyes Dutch Midfielder

French football giants Olympique Lyon are reportedly preparing to break their transfer record for 23-year-old Dutch midfielder Daishawn Forbs, according to reliable sources.

Lyon's Bid for Forbs

The Ligue 1 club is rumored to have offered a €15 million transfer fee to Forbs' current team, AZ Alkmaar, which would surpass the €14 million paid for Houssem Aouar in 2017.

Forbs, a key figure in AZ Alkmaar's title challenge, has recorded an impressive 8 goals and 11 assists in 28 Eredivisie appearances this season.

• Lyon's previous transfer record: €14 million for Houssem Aouar in 2017.
• Forbs has 8 goals and 11 assists in 28 Eredivisie appearances this season.
• Lyon is looking to strengthen their midfield after a disappointing domestic campaign.

Lyon's Midfield Reinforcement

The potential signing of Forbs would provide a much-needed reinforcement for Lyon's midfield, which has struggled for consistency in recent times.

Forbs' arrival could allow Lyon to challenge for both the Ligue 1 title and success in European competitions.

Transfer Details Pending

The transfer is still subject to medical tests and the agreement of personal terms with Forbs.

Lyon is expected to make an official announcement on the signing in the coming days.
