CM:Moreto Cassama(22)
In the second half of last season Cassama was a fixture in the Reims side.Playing at the base of their midfield 3 he showed excellent press resistance and ability to progress the ball with long and short passes,mixing it with excellent timing of tackles.

CM:Bruno Guimaraes(22)
Guimaraes had a great start to his Lyon career gettting 3 MOTM awards in a row and having a good game against Juve in his champions league debut. He has good physical attributes with the technical abilities to match making him the perfect box to box.

CM/AM: Adil Aouchiche(18)
Aouchiche is seen as one of frances big prospects with him possessing very good technical abilities capable of scoring and creating goals. After moving to Etienne on a free from PSG he is bound to get minutes this season and could have a breakout year.

CB:Wesley Fofana(19)
With the departure of his CB partner Saliba the spotlight is on Fofana this season. He possesses great physical attributes along with great defensive abilities especially good positioning.Hopefully this year he can add the ball playing side to his game.

ST:AmineGouri(19)
Gouri couldn’t break into the Lyon first team but after a move worth 7 million to Nice he may finally get his chance to break onto the senior football stage. Gouiri was impressive for Frances youth sides scoring 20 goals across 4 tournaments. Plenty of potential

CB:Sven Botman(20)
Signed from Ajax Botman is the Gabriel replacement. Down to the fact that they posses very similar physical characteristics and are both left footers. They also have similar numbers defensively and on the ball. Could be a very smart signing form Lille.

ST/AM:Jonathan David
The 19 year old Canadian has lots of hype around him. With 18 goals and 8 assists at Gent it’s clear to see why showing great movement off the ball,finishing and good creativity and being two footed is always helpful. Excellent Osimhen replacement

CM:Maxence Caqueret
Caqueret has been dubbed as one of the best midfielders Lyon has produced. Has great tenacity and work rate to make up for his height combined with good technical skills such as passing and defensively. He will definitely feature a lot more this season

AM/winger:Rayan Cherki
Cherki is another huge talent from the Lyon academy. Making his debut at 16 and producing good performances especially against Nantes where he got 2G+2A. Very good dribbling allows him to work in tight spaces and has finishing combined with good creativity

ST:El Bilal Toure
The 18 year old made 6 starts for Stade De Reims scoring 3 goals and has scored 2 in pre season. Technically he needs to improve but he is good physically and looks a natural finisher with good composure in front of goal at a young age. Has very good potential.
