Openda is coveted by Coventry City and 3 French clubs after failure at Juventus
Lois Openda, after a frustrating spell at Juventus, is attracting interest from a number of clubs including Coventry City and three French teams, with a possible loan move on the horizon.
Lois Openda, who was unsuccessful at Juventus, is looking for a new club and has reportedly received offers from Lens, Olympique Lyonnais, Rennes and Coventry City. The best alternative for the attacker may be a loan. The player arrived at the Italian team last season with high expectations, coming from RB Leipzig, with a loan contract that included an obligation to buy at the end of the season for a total of €46 million. However, the signing proved to be a failure for the Bianconeri, as he scored just two goals in 34 official matches, struggling to get playing time and is not part of the team's plans for the future. Openda's performance was so underwhelming that he has not found the net since December 2025 and has played just four minutes in his last 11 matches of the season. Due to the high cost of the transaction, an immediate sale seems unlikely, which makes Juventus receptive to a loan with an option to buy. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the club received four calls about Openda, three of them from French teams. His former club RC Lens are interested, as are Olympique Lyonnais and Stade Rennais. An intriguing alternative comes from the Premier League, with Coventry City, who have just secured access, looking to bring in a big name to show their ambitions.
