(Reuters) - French Ligue 1 club Olympique Lyonnais have placed the majority of their squad on the transfer market in an attempt to reach their financial sales target before the end of the transfer window, French newspaper L'Equipe reported on Thursday.

"The management of OL has just sent out the message that, from now on, just about everyone is for sale, as long as someone pays the right price,” the newspaper said.
