After a week-long training camp in Switzerland, Lyon will continue their preseason by taking on English club Fulham on Saturday, July 21 at the Stade Pierre Rajon in Bourgoin-Jallieu.

Olympique Lyonnais have added another date to their preseason schedule, announcing a friendly against English club Fulham FC on Saturday, July 21 (9 pm CET) at the Stade Pierre Rajon in Bourgoin-Jallieu. It will be the second summer showdown for Bruno Genesio and company, who open their slate a week earlier in Switzerland against FC Sion.

Fulham, back in the Premier League

The London-based club finished third in the 2017-18 EFL Championship, earning promotion to the Premier League. Winners of last May's final in Wembley, with Scottish captain Tom Cairney scoring the lone goal in a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa, the Cottagers return to the English top flight after four seasons in the second division. Led by Serbian coach Slaviša Jokanović since January 2016, Fulham boast a squad that includes 18-year-old standout Ryan Sessegnon (15 goals last season) and Norwegian international Stefan Johansen (eight goals).
