Loïs Openda to OL: an attacking gamble to return to the top

FootReporter · 29 juillet 2026

Olympique Lyonnais has officially confirmed the arrival of Loïs Openda, loaned for one season. A high-profile signing for the Rhône club, which strengthens its attacking line with a striker already well known in Ligue 1.

A profile built for depth

At 26 years old, the Belgian international returns to a league where he had made a strong impression in the colours of RC Lens. Quick, powerful and lethal in behind, Openda has a profile capable of bringing more verticality to Lyon's play.

After a more difficult spell at Juventus, this return to France represents a fine opportunity to rediscover his best level and regain the consistency that had built his reputation.

A low-risk bet with high potential

For OL, this deal carries limited risk but definite potential. If Openda manages to rediscover his effectiveness, Lyon could pull off one of the shrewdest moves of this summer transfer window and secure a precious asset in the race for European places.
