Arrived at the start of the transfer window in England, on the side of Manchester City, after a successful season with OL (12 goals and 20 assists), Rayan Cherki was originally to wear the number 29. But the departure of Jack Grenish, former number 10 of the Citizens, for Everton changed the situation. The legendary number 10 of Agüero was awarded to the 21 -year -old Lyonnais. A number of a completely different caliber, synonymous with higher expectations and additional pressure for the native of Lyon.

With the 29th, the message was clear: not to precipitate things and letar expensive to acclimatize to the Premier League. With the 10, the situation is different: it will be expected behind Erling Haaland, at the heart of the game, to distill the balloons. This is a number that he has already worn with the Bleuets in U21, but that he no longer touched OL or in the French team. The attacker already has a goal and a assist with City, registered during the Club World Cup. This Saturday, facing the Wolves, Cherki will be keen to shine for its early beginnings.
