It's official: Zachary Athekame has signed for Lyon from Milan. The defender's move has been confirmed by both clubs, with personal terms and registration finalised. He will now link up with his new teammates ahead of the upcoming fixtures, having completed a medical and agreed on contract terms. Unlike many transfers, this move came without rival competition, allowing Lyon to finalise the signing smoothly. Lyon's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 0.67 goals per game (2 in 3). Zachary Athekame would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Milan have also been linked with Leny Yoro, Omari Hutchinson and Noussair Mazraoui while Lyon are reportedly monitoring Matt O'Riley. Stay tuned for more details as the story develops.
