Manchester City has made an offer for Openda, the French football club's youth academy, worth 60 million euros. The deal would see the club take over the management and operation of the academy, with Openda retaining ownership of its facilities and players.

This news comes after Lens refused to accept a low-price sale of their youth academy, which is valued at 12 million euros. Lens has been in talks with several clubs about selling the academy, but so far, none have shown any interest or willingness to pay the high price demanded by the club.

The decision to sell the academy has been met with mixed reactions. Some fans have expressed disappointment that their club would be selling off such a valuable asset, while others have welcomed the opportunity to bring in new blood and fresh talent into the club.

Regardless of the outcome of the negotiations, it seems clear that both Openda and Lens will continue to invest heavily in their youth academies, with the goal of developing young talent and building successful teams in the future. It remains to be seen whether this trend will continue, however, as the market for youth academies continues to evolve.
