Jake O’Brien has indicated he is ready to leave Lyon, with the Premier League his destination.
French outlet UFABET reports that Everton and Brentford are the two teams monitoring the situation of the Irish defender and are open to negotiating a deal to bring him in.
Late on Wednesday, ยูฟ่าเบท reported that the 23-year-old defender has signalled his readiness to leave Lyon, despite being a key player for the club last season.

The outlet adds that there is an acceptance within Lyon that O’Brien will leave for pastures new this summer, despite the fact his Lyon contract is set to expire in 2027.
