Croatian football international Duje Ćaleta-Car is set to leave French club Olympique Lyon and join Italian Serie A side Sassuolo, according to reports by French media outlets. The transfer, which involves an oral agreement between Lyon and Sassuolo, is expected to finalize during the summer transfer window. Ćaleta-Car returned to Lyon this summer after a loan spell at Spanish club Real Sociedad, where he won the Copa del Rey. However, he has not been included in Lyon’s plans under manager Paulo Fonseca, prompting efforts to find a solution for his departure. The transfer fee has not yet been disclosed, though his market value is estimated at around €2.8 million.

The article reports that Croatian footballer Duje Ćaleta-Car has signed with Italian club Sassuolo after leaving Lyon. The transfer was confirmed by renowned sports journalist Fabrizio Romano, who stated that there is a verbal agreement in place. Ćaleta-Car previously played for clubs in France, England, and Spain, including Marseille, Southampton, Real Sociedad, and Lyon. He joined Lyon from Southampton in 2024 for €3.5 million, having been purchased by Marseille for €8 million from Salzburg earlier. At Lyon, he made 57 appearances but is not part of their future plans. Sassuolo aims to add him to their squad, marking his fourth league in his career.
