Author of a fine second half of the season, Rayan Cherki owes his progress to his excellent understanding with Bradley Barcola and Alexandre Lacazette.

After a gloomy first part of the season, Olympique Lyonnais supporters experienced some great emotions after Christmas. The final ranking will not be the one hoped for, but some matches are promising for Les Gones. Offensively, the trio made up of Lacazette, Barcola and Cherki is a great reason for hope. The two nuggets of OL shone around their captain, author of 27 goals in Ligue 1 this season.

A few days ago, Bradley Barcola was not mistaken in singing the praises of Alexandre Lacazette. His young teammate Rayan Cherki did the same. Before the last match against Nice in the league, the French international hopeful thanked his captain and confirmed that their relationship was excellent… both on and off the pitch.

Cherki very complimentary towards Lacazette

” We get along well ! We like to play together, to have fun. Even in training, we discuss, we exchange and that’s what made the difference during the matches “ explains Rayan Cherki before continuing. “We were close from day one. He understood what a good man I was and vice versa. It matched directly, we are both without waffle. Even though I’m younger, when I have to tell him things, I tell him and he too and it’s something he appreciates. It brings us closer”.

And the French international to conclude. “He is a player who has a lot of games, goals. I’m not going to tell you everything we say to each other on a daily basis, but he taught me a lot of things. details the French international hopeful, who does not hide the importance of an experienced player like Alexandre Lacazette at his side during the season at Olympique Lyonnais. Additional proof if necessary that the 32-year-old striker is simply essential to Les Gones.
