Juventus striker Loïs Openda is reportedly set for a swift exit from the Bianconeri after just one season. The Belgian, who joined the Italian giants in September 2025, is now poised to move to Lyon on loan.
The French club will cover Openda's full salary and pay a loan fee of approximately 3 million euros. Conflicting reports have emerged regarding a permanent buy option; while Gazzetta dello Sport and Nicolò Schira claim such a clause exists, Fabrizio Romano suggests otherwise.
Openda arrived at Juventus from RB Leipzig in a transfer valued at just over 40 million euros. However, his performances have been largely disappointing, with only 2 goals in 34 appearances for the Old Lady.
Interestingly, the Belgian is expected to feature in today's friendly against Standard Liège at 9:00 PM Bulgarian time, before finalizing his move to Lyon.
The Bianconeri are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements following Dušan Vlahović's departure and are still hoping to secure the signing of Randal Kolo Muani from PSG.
