Oumar Solet, 17 years old

Since joining the club, he has already begun training with OL’s first team squad.
Martin Terrier, 20 years old
Loaned out this season by Lille to Strasbourg, where he’ll finish the remainder of the 2017-18 campaign, the young striker born in 1997 has needed little time to make a name for himself in Ligue 1.

In addition to his impressive club performances, he has also shined brightly on the international scene with the France U21 Team.

Terrier is set to take the next big step in career with Lyon, along with fellow up-and-comers Mouctar Diakhaby, Lucas Tousart, Tanguy Ndombele and Houssem Aouar.
