Sources: Lyon attempting highly controversial Crystal Palace transfer
Briefly

Jean-Philippe Mateta, a key player for Crystal Palace, is subject to a contentious transfer bid from Lyon, whose owner, John Textor, also invests in Palace. Lyon faces a transfer ban due to financial troubles and is provisionally relegated, complicating the bid. Despite this, Textor is seeking legal options to secure Mateta, who has drawn attention due to his strong performance this season with 17 goals. Competing clubs, including West Ham and Barcelona, are also interested in the striker, intensifying the transfer dynamics.
Sources indicate that John Textor is exploring legal avenues to facilitate a controversial bid for Crystal Palace's Jean-Philippe Mateta despite Lyon's financial constraints and player signing ban.
Graham Potter of West Ham is keen on acquiring Mateta, even after recently bringing in Evan Ferguson on loan, highlighting the striker's continued marketability.
