It is done. Mathieu Valbuena returns to the championship of France, a year after leaving Marseille for Dynamo Moscow. “Small Bike” Tuesday signed three years for the OL.
Announced as the priority path of Jean-Michel Aulas to strengthen the middle of Lyon’s ground, weighed down by the injury of Clement Grenier, Mathieu Valbuena has signed a three-year contract to the runner-up France for an amount estimated at 5 million euros. Exiled Dynamo Moscow last summer, the French international, if he remained in Russia, was guaranteed not play European competition, which is not the case for Lyon this season.
A strong argument which probably convinced the former player of Olympique de Marseille, driven by the desire to compete in the Champions League and especially the Euro in France next year. It will be interesting also to observe how Hubert Fournier plans to integrate the environment in its system … One thing is sure, some locker room managers will be sacrificed on the altar of competition.
Still, palmares Valbuena (1 Championship France, three cuts League), its European and international experience, speak for him. The player will be presented Tuesday to the press at 17h.
