It's pretty much official, ex-Zenit St. Petersburg manager Luciano Spalletti is inches away from becoming Lyon's new man in charge. In an interview, Spalletti said he was happy with the current squad, and not many changes would be needed, the speculation will be completed in the next couple of hours. This is Mike Hunt reporting for Sky Sports News.
In a strange sum of events it has only been made even stranger by the fact that Luciano Spalletti is once again manager of Zenit St. Petersburg!
