LYON: Olympique Lyonnais have signed Serbian midfielder Nemanja Matic from Rennes, the Ligue 1 club announced today.
The 35-year-old has signed a contract with Lyon until June 2026, in a deal worth €2.6 million.
Matic had two spells with Chelsea, where he won two Premier League titles, and also played for Manchester United and AS Roma before moving to Rennes on a two-year contract in August 2023.
He missed training earlier this month which saw the club issue a statement criticising him. Matic said in reply that he had been dealing with enrolling his children in school.
Lyon are 16th in Ligue 1 after their 3-2 loss at home to Rennes yesterday.
