What if you were told that the best player in Europe of the moment was playing at Olympique Lyonnais? Far from the world stars Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane, Raphinha or even Ousmane Dembélé, all authors of prolific seasons, it is… Georges Mikautadze!
The Georgian international who arrived at OL during the 2024 summer transfer window has been involved in 11 goals from his team since the beginning of March, which makes him the most decisive player than any other player of the five largest European championships during this period.
Scorer yesterday against Auxerre, the player signed his 15th achievement of the season in 41 matches in all competitions. Since arriving at OL, the 24 -year -old has demonstrated his offensive impact in the game of Olympique Lyonnais.
LDC objective for Lyon
During the victory against Auxerre this Sunday (3-1), Mikautadze, author of the first Lyonnais goal on penalty, did not hide the Lyon ambitions at the end of the season. The Lyonnais dream of participating in the Champions League next season and this dream is not impossible for the center-forward, as it indicates after the meeting: ” Our goal is to seek this qualification in the Champions League. There are still a few matches for that and why not go take second place ”.
Currently fourth at a point in Olympique de Marseille and two points from Monaco (PSG dolphin), the Gones can claim a qualification in LDC, five years after their last participation (season 2019-2020). But for the moment, the Lyonnais remain concentrated on the next future deadlines and in particular on the quarter -final return of Europa League against Manchester United, this Thursday at 9 p.m. Thursday.
