Lyon Agree Loan Deal for Openda from Juventus
French side Lyon have reached a verbal agreement with Juventus to sign striker Openda on a loan deal until June 2027.
The agreement between the two clubs has been finalized, with Lyon set to pay a €3 million loan fee to secure the forward’s services. As part of the deal, both clubs will share the player’s salary throughout the duration of the loan.
The move is now in its final stages, with Openda expected to undergo his medical examination soon before the transfer is officially announced.

Juventus, meanwhile, have agreed to the temporary move as the player seeks regular first-team football. The loan arrangement will allow Openda to gain valuable playing time while remaining under contract with the Italian giants.
Barring any last-minute complications during the medical, the deal is expected to be completed in the coming days, with an official announcement to follow shortly.
The transfer marks another significant piece of business for Lyon as they continue to reshape their squad ahead of the 2026/27 season. Fans will now be eager to see Openda in action once the move is officially confirmed.
