Czechia international Pavel Sulc completes Lyon move
Olympique Lyonnais have completed the signing of Czechia international Pavel Sulc (24). He has signed a four-year deal with the Ligue 1 side. Despite the club's well-documented financial issues and the introduction of a period of austerity, Lyon are nonetheless being active in the transfer window this summer. Afonso Moreira, Ruben Kluivert, and Matt Turner have all arrived, even if OL tried to cancel the latter's transfer, made during the John Textor era. He has been immediately loaned out to the MLS. Sulc is the latest player to arrive. The attacking midfielder has joined from Viktoria Plzeň in a deal worth €7.5m. He has 14 caps for Czechia and has a strong record in his native country, scoring 33 goals and registering 15 assists in 66 matches in the last two seasons.
