Lyon chief Lacombe yet to hear from Juventus over Bastos

Olympique Lyon chief Bernard Lacombe says there's been no offer from Juventus for wing-back Michel Bastos.

Lacombe has floated the idea of selling Bastos to Juve in a swap.

He told TMW: "Can I confirm that I have had contact with Juventus for Bastos? No, at least we as a club, we have never spoken with Juve.

"I read about the offer of €22 million on the part of the Bianconeri, but we did not reach anything like that. Maybe at coaching staff level something has happened, but between the two clubs, at least at the moment, there is absolutely nothing.

"Momo Sissoko and Vincenzo Iaquinta? I do not see how we can sign players with so high a salary, these are those of Juventus, not our club."
