After making significant progress in the past few hours, Lyon is set to close a deal with Sampdoria for Joachim Andersen. The Danish defender, born in 1996, is in fact expected to sign his contract with the French side shortly.
The Blucerchiati are now on the lookout for a replacement and they are evaluating the profile of Giangiacomo Magnani, who played with Sassuolo on loan from Juventus last season. Sampdoria, however, are still evaluating their options and they will take their time to find a suitable replacement to departing Andersen.
