Jordan Veretout Joins Olympique Lyonnais

Jordan Veretout has officially transferred from Olympique Marseille to Olympique Lyonnais, signing a two-year contract for a reported fee of €4 million, potentially rising to €7 million with bonuses. The deal includes a 25% sell-on clause for any future transfers. Veretout, 31, previously made 94 appearances for Marseille, contributing significantly with 10 goal involvements last season. His transfer was facilitated under French regulations allowing exceptions post-transfer window. Lyon, eager to strengthen after a rocky start to their Ligue 1 campaign, is set to face Lens in their next match. This move marks the 10th signing for Lyon's coach Pierre Sage as they seek to boost their midfield options.
