"Lyon" leader suffered a serious injury

"The star of the 'Lyon' club, Nabil Fekir, suffered a serious knee injury in a friendly match for the French national team against Portugal, which will prevent him from playing for half a year. The 22-year-old attacking midfielder was on the field for just 14 minutes when he was replaced by Antoine Griezmann, and post-match examinations revealed torn cruciate ligaments. N. Fekir was one of the best players in 'Ligue 1' last year, scoring 14 goals in 34 matches and being named the best young French footballer. This season, the player had also started impressively, scoring 4 goals in 4 'Ligue 1' matches."
