Olympique Lyonnais, coached by Paulo Fonseca, is in advanced negotiations with Portuguese club Estoril for 25-year-old Austrian center-back Felix Bacher, according to French website Foot Mercato. The deal is expected to exceed €4 million, with an agreement possible soon. Bacher joined Estoril on a free transfer in summer 2024 from WSG Tirol and has two years left on his contract. He is valued at €6 million by Transfermarkt and scored two goals in 35 appearances in the 2025/26 season. Lyon's interest is genuine, and a formal offer is expected in the coming days. Bacher, a former Austrian U20 international, also played for Mainz and Freiburg in Germany.
