Eli Junior Kroupi is still making waves! The youngest goalscorer in Ligue 1 Uber Eats this season, the youngest-ever goalscorer for FC Lorient in Ligue 1 Uber Eats and now the third youngest player to score a Ligue 1 Uber Eats double since 1947-48: the 17-year-old striker has been in the spotlight ever since the start of the season. Playing up front in Régis Le Bris's three-man forward line, the son of Elie Kroupi scored twice for Lyon at Groupama Stadium on Sunday.

Oh it's just five goal involvements in four starts...

With this precocious double - at just 17 years and 105 days old - the son of former professional footballer Elie Kroupi became the third-youngest player to achieve such a feat in the top flight, behind former France international Bernard Zénier (17 years and 23 days), in September 1974, and Michel Margottin, in April 1961 (16 years and 328 days).

The Lorient young gun now has three goals in four starts this season - not to mention two assists in 334 minutes played.

"He's a phenomenon. He reminds me a little of Kylian Mbappé in terms of the maturity of his game," said team-mate Tiémoué Bakayoko after the match on Sunday. "He already has good stats for a youngster his age."
