The striker came close to a switch to Newcastle
prior to the start of the season and has now
revealed he will likely depart the Ligue 1 side when
his contract expires in 2014
Olympique Lyonnais striker Bafetimbi Gomis has
hinted he will leave the club when his contract
expires at the end of the season.
The France international appeared set to end his
four-year stint with the club in the summer, but a
proposed move to Premier League side Newcastle
United fell through.
Gomis will become a free agent at the end of the
season when his current deal at the Stade de
Gerland expires, and the former Saint-Etienne man
insists 2013-14 will be his final term with Remi
Garde's outfit.
"I will stay until the end of the season," he
told RMC.
Gomis was forced to train away from the first team
during the transfer window after refusing to sign a
new contract.
But the 28-year-old was quick to stress that the
dispute between himself and the club has been
forgotten.
"It was complicated but there is no problem," the
28-year-old added.
"I have the confidence of managers and coaches.
Everything that happened that is ancient history.
"I will give everything for Lyon, I am very attached
to this club.
"You cannot erase everything that happened, but
we have a common goal."
