Exclusive : Lyon Scouting Super Eagles New Star Oghenekaro Etebo In France
Published: May 29, 2017
French Ligue 1 club Lyon are mulling over a summer move for Nigeria U23 poster boy Oghenekaro Etebo.
A Lyon insider has informed this website that they are delighted with the performances of the midfielder since he linked up with Portuguese setup CD Feirense in 2016, and will continue to observe him when Nigeria tackle Togo in Paris on Thursday.
''The player Etebo is also being looked at by OL (Olympique Lyonnais), he is very pacy,'' a Lyon insider told allnigeriasoccer.com.
''Scouts there tell us he might fit well into their team with three high profile expected departures from their midfield/attack this summer.''
With Etebo yet to sign a new contract with CD Feirense, the Primeira Liga outfit are willing to cash in on the Nigerian or he'll leave for nothing at the end of the 2017-2018 season.
