Lyon president Aulas: We did consider Real Madrid option in Mariano deal, but...

Olympique Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas has again stated Mariano Diaz has no Real Madrid buy-back clause in his deal.

Mariano is being linked with a return to Real for next year, barely months into his move with OL.

The rumours have angered Aulas, who has reaffirmed that Real have no option on the striker.

He told SFR Sport: "No there is no clause.

"It had been considered for a moment, and then finally it was not formatted. On the one hand, because we did not want it and secondly Mariano did not want it either.

"So Mariano belongs 100% to OL."
