Ernest Nuamah, Rayan Cherki set for starting roles in Lyon’s clash against FCSB

Youngsters Ernest Nuamah and Rayan Cherki are in line to start for Olympique Lyon on Thursday night in their crucial Europa League encounter against FC Steaua București.

The French Ligue 1 outfit heads into the game with a 3-1 advantage from the first leg of the Round 16 tie.

Both Ernest Nuamah and Rayan Cherki excelled for Lyon last Sunday when the team defeated OGC Nice 2-0.

In that game, the Ghanaian and Algerian started the game from the bench and only came on to secure victory for Lyon in the second half.

Today, sources are reporting that Lyon manager Paulo Fonseca is happy with the performance of the youngsters and will consider starting both of them in the game against FC Steaua București tonight.

The Lyon manager despite being banned from the touchline in the French Ligue 1 for the next eight games is eligible to be on the touchline in the Europa League.

He will hope starting Ernest Nuamah and Rayan Cherki will yield the expected result to ensure Lyon progresses to the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

Tonight’s game between Olympique Lyon and FC Steaua București will be played at the Groupama Stadium.
