League summary:
Ligue 1 2015/2016 (ongoing): 4 matches/1 goal (Lyon)
Description:
Olympique Lyon rely on youth – their current team is built with talented home-grown players such as Alexandre Lacazette, Corentin Tolisso, Clément Grenier, Rachid Ghezzal, Samuel Umtiti and Jordan Ferri. Aldo Kalulu is another youngster which made a first team breakthrough this season. He made his Ligue 1 debut on 12 September 2015 against Lille OSC. He replaced Jordan Ferri after 78 minutes in a 0-0 home draw. He scored his first goal almost two weeks later on Wednesday 23 September 2015 against Bastia. It appears that he is now ready to be a solid backup for Claudio Beauvue and Alexandre Lacazette who are currently first choice strikers.
