Olympique Lyon finalises summer transfers and seeks striker before July 30

Olympique Lyon has completed the bulk of its summer recruitment, adding six new players that coach Paulo Fonseca can already use in pre‑season preparation. Captain Corentin Tolisso praised the newcomers for their work ethic and quick integration, noting they provide a strong squad foundation.

The club still needs a centre‑forward for the third qualifying round of the Champions League. French authorities require the list of eligible players to be submitted by 30 July, prompting Lyon to target a striker before that deadline. Current forward options are limited, with several attackers set to leave on loan, so the search remains active.
