Lyon, 1 September 2011
Young French midfielder Gueida Fofana has joined Olympique Lyonnais from Le Havre. The amount of the transfer was €1.8 million, plus up to €0.8 million in incentives, and he has signed a four-year contract.
Gueida Fofana, 20, captain of the French national U20 side, was one of the revelations of the U20 World Cup this summer in Colombia and one of the artisans of its success, with two goals and one assist, helping the squad advance to the semi-final round.
His addition to the TEAM is in line with the new strategy of Olympique Lyonnais.
