In an attempt to revive their season in Ligue 1, Olympique Lyonnais have secured the services of experienced midfielder Nemanja Matić from Stade Rennais F.C. The 35-year-old Serbian international, known for his commanding presence and tactical sensibility, brings a wealth of experience.

Lyon currently finds themselves mired in a challenging season, in 16th place with 16 points. In a move to bolster their midfield and inject leadership into the team, the signing of Matić is hoped to be something of a game-changer for the club.




Olympique Lyonnais' sporting director, David Friio, spoke of the acquisition, stating, "Nemanja is an example of professionalism and high standards." The sentiment echoes the belief that Matić's experience and leadership qualities will not only bolster the team's performance on the field but also contribute to a positive shift in the overall dynamics within Lyon.


Nemanja Matić could make his debut for Lyon in a crucial fixture against Marseille next Sunday.
