24-year-old midfielder Houssem Aouar, whose contract is about to expire, will leave Lyon, which he joined at the age of 9, OL announced on Tuesday June 6. ” A child of the club, who arrived at the OL Academy at the age of 11 in 2009, is going to take up new challenges “, tweeted the Rhone club. Born in Lyon, Aouar played 233 matches with the professional team and scored 41 goals. This season, the player had lost his starting status and he only took part in fifteen Ligue 1 matches and two in the Coupe de France (1 goal, 1 assist) while OL, only 7th at the end of the season, did not qualify for any European Cup. His relationship with the public has also deteriorated considerably and he was booed for his last appearance, on May 27, when he came into play during the Lyon-Reims match (3-1). Selected once in the France A team, he opted for Algeria in March. He was called up with the Fennecs for the first time on May 30 to face Uganda and Tunisia.
