After a very delicate first part of the season, Olympique Lyonnais pulled out all the stops to restore its image.
His arrival was made official after the close of the transfer window, as an end point to an endless soap opera to complete a very lively transfer window. Saïd Benrahma symbolizes the ambitions of Olympique Lyonnais. At the age of 27, the Algerian international is delighted to open a new chapter in his career in Lyon.
Arriving from West Ham, Benrahma was presented to the press this Friday. And according to his words, OL’s new project seems to correspond to his personal aspirations. “ Lyon is a big club, when they call you, you can’t refuse“, launched OL’s winter reinforcement during his official presentation.
“The project I needed”: Benrahma’s strong words
“ I spoke with David Friio (the sports director) and Pierre Sage (the coach), they appealed to me. This is what made me choose Lyon. This was the project I needed“, Benrahma continued. The Algerian also confided that he had failed other clubs.
“ I had other suggestions, I really made a choice from my heart, where I think I will flourish and have fun. I think I made the right choice“, he concluded. Saïd Benrahma could quickly be thrown into the deep end by Pierre Sage, perhaps as early as this Sunday, against Montpellier (kick-off at 5:05 p.m.).
