Ligue 1 Revelation: Corentin Tolisso Shines at Lyon
When reflecting on Olympique Lyonnais’ strong 2014–2015 campaign in Ligue 1, Corentin Tolisso undoubtedly stands out as one of the season’s breakout stars. The Franco-Togolese midfielder featured in all 38 league matches, scoring 7 goals and playing a crucial role in helping OL push Paris Saint-Germain in the title race until the very end.
Lyon coach Hubert Fournier didn’t hold back in his praise for the 21-year-old:
“I don’t see many players like him. He has no reason to be ashamed of comparisons. He’s a real top-level player — powerful, relentless, a goal-scorer, and intelligent. So, we don’t shout it too loudly.”
Tolisso’s impressive performances this season have firmly established him as one of the most promising midfield talents in France.
