Nemanja Matic has signed with OL until 2026. The Serbian midfielder will fight not to go down to Ligue 2.
Chelsea, Benfica, Manchester United, AS Roma, the jerseys worn by Nemanja Matic recent years provide a fairly clear overview of the player profile. But this extensive, even prestigious, CV led to failure at Stade Rennais where he arrived last summer. Six months later, the 35-year-old Serbian midfielder opted for trouble. Which can raise questions.
Nemanja Matic has signed up for two and a half years, until June 30, 2026, with Olympique Lyonnais, the club owned by John Textor said on Saturday. Among the 16th in Ligue 1 (play-off place), the left-hander is condemned to fight for maintenance, 15 matches from the end of the Championship.
Irony of this transfer, estimated at three million euros, Matic was at Groupama Stadium (Décines-Charpieu) on Friday evening to witness the home defeat of his future club in front of… Stade Rennais (2-315th day).
