This Monday, it was back to school for the players of Olympique Lyonnais. Without Alexandre Lacazette (Neom) and Nicolas Tagliafico who left the club free on June 30, nor Rayan Cherki (Manchester City) and Thiago Almada (Loan End); They were 29 to find the Groupama Ol Training Center. After medical tests this morning, there were 26, including 4 guards, to go out on the ground at 5 p.m. Ernest Nuamah (injured) and Jordan Veretout (personal reasons) did not take part in the session, just like Orel Mangala who is in the rethletic phase and we saw a jogging with physical preparers. For the rest of the group, which still does not know if he will play in Ligue 1 or in Ligue 2 this season; The session started under the drops with a racing -based heating.
Then, the Lyonnais, including sharp Corentin Tolisso, Georges Mikautadze or Malick Fofana, participated in a moving exercise with the ball with the least possible ball touches. All under the gaze of Paulo Fonseca, which we heard giving voice in French and English. For their part, the guards, including Lucas Perri, worked their game at the foot and then hands. The group then found itself for small rhythmic oppositions where we could see the executives but also many young people from the club. After a good thirty minutes, the session, open to the media, continued behind closed doors. OL will continue in a few days with a first friendly match in camera against Villefranche on July 19, then another against Molenbeek on the 23rd of Décines.
