Olympique Lyonnais is actively pursuing the signing of Aston Villa defender Andrés García to strengthen their backline. The 23-year-old Spanish right-back has been a priority target for the Gones, who are looking to add depth to their defense. García arrived in the Premier League in January 2025 and is seeking to secure a loan deal to gain more playing time. The opportunity to join Olympique Lyonnais in France is also appealing to him. However, the player's current club, Birmingham, has a strong interest in keeping him, and several Spanish clubs are also monitoring the situation. According to Spanish media outlet _SUPER_, Olympique Lyonnais has made a firm offer to García's entourage. The prospect of competing in the most prestigious European competition with the Rhone-based club is a significant draw for the young Spanish player. Nevertheless, Olympique Lyonnais is not the only club interested in García. Deportivo Alavés, Elche, and FC Valence are also closely following the situation.
