“Grenier will cost as much as Gotze” – Lyon president warns Wenger

The President of Lyon, Jean-Michel Aulas, has warned Arsene Wenger, that if he wants to sign Clement Grenier, he has to cough out a similar amount that Bayern Munich paid for Mario Gotze.

“Clement said to me that he will give priority to Lyon if we qualify for the Champions League. So I prefer [to listen to] what he said, rather than what Arsene Wenger said,” Aulas told Canal+.

“But, we have to make a financial effort to keep him. We will see after the level of our effort [that we have to do].

“If Arsene wants to have an idea of Grenier’s price, I will tell him that it is the same as what Bayern Munich paid for Mario Gotze – around €37.”

Wenger had told Telefoot over the weekend that, ““We are following him. His intelligence of play pleases me. He has interesting qualities. He reminds me of Nasri.”
