The French club Lyon is set to sign Brazilian striker Edinson Cavani from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in a deal worth up to €25 million, according to reports.
Cavani, who has been with PSG since 2016, has scored 14 goals and provided three assists in just 18 appearances this season. The forward is known for his powerful shot and excellent dribbling skills.
The signing of Cavani will be a major boost for Lyon, which currently sits second in the Ligue 1 table with 37 points after 19 matches. The club has struggled to find a consistent goal scorer this season, with only one player scoring more than two goals so far.
However, the addition of Cavani could change that, as he is expected to provide a significant boost to the team's attacking capabilities. His experience at the highest level of football will also be invaluable, helping to improve the team's overall performance.
The transfer fee of €25 million is relatively low for a player of Cavani's caliber, but it shows how much the club values his services. With the summer transfer window now closed, Lyon will have to wait until January to make any further signings, but Cavani's arrival could be a huge step forward for the team.
