Manchester City Transfer News: Lyon Chief 'Can't Guarantee' Tanguy Ndombele Stay

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has said he "can't guarantee" the future of midfielder Tanguy Ndombele or the club's other top talents.

Ndombele has quickly established a reputation as one of Ligue 1's brightest prospects and has been linked with several of Europe's elite outfits. Aulas recently appeared on Radio Scoop (h/t Richard Fay of the Manchester Evening News) and spoke of how difficult it was to retain stars as talented as Ndombele.

He said: "When players decide to play for Madrid, Barcelona or Manchester ... You don't decide to sell [Alexandre] Lacazette or [Corentin] Tolisso, and in the same vein, I can't guarantee that we'll be able to keep Ndombele or [Houssem] Aouar next summer.
