Lyon have confirmed their squad that Pierre Sage will be able to choose from ahead of their reception of Nantes on Sunday afternoon and it includes two notable exclusions.
Surprisingly, Wilfried Zaha (31) and Gift Orban (22) have both been left out of the OL manager’s squad to face Les Canaris in Ligue 1. With such a luxury of riches when it comes to attacking options, the former Red Star coach has been forced to make some difficult selection decisions and that includes leaving big names out of his squad of available players.
Since arriving on loan from Galatasaray, Zaha has struggled to maintain a consistent place within the Les Gones team. On the hand of Orban, his performances have been impressive when given the opportunity so his exlcusion perhaps comes as more of a shock. However, Cherki and Fofana have both been rather impressive in recent matches and dropping either of them would seem awfully harsh. Selection headaches look to be a problem for Sage for the foreseeable future.
