Lyon reject Dortmund bid for Cherki

Borussia Dortmund have made an official offer of €22.5 million for Olympique Lyon star Rayan Cherki.

However, it has been rejected by the French Ligue 1 side, who are reluctant to sell the attacking midfielder, according to Sky Germany and RMC.

Olympique Lyon president John Textor told Canal Plus on Sunday that Cherki will not be allowed to join Dortmund before the transfer window closes on Monday.

The Black and Yellows, however, have not given up their pursuit of the player.

Cherki is contracted to Lyon until the summer of 2026.
