Lyon’s Malick Fofana is confident that Gift Orban will eventually shine at the Ligue 1 club, according to a report by Media Talk Africa.
Orban made the move to Lyon from KAA Gent in the Belgian Pro League in January, with an impressive record of 32 goals in 52 appearances for the Buffalos. However, the 21-year-old has struggled to make an impact at Lyon, failing to score in his first eight league games for the team.
Despite his slow start, Fofana believes that Orban has the potential to become a key player for Lyon. “Gift needs time to adapt. The rules are different here compared to Ghent, and he has found it challenging. He is a unique and talented player, and everyone is starting to see that,” Fofana said in an interview with Voetbalkrant.
Fofana’s words offer hope for Orban and Lyon fans, who are eagerly waiting for the young striker to find his form and start delivering goals for the team.
As Orban continues to work hard and adjust to his new surroundings, Lyon supporters can look forward to seeing him fulfill his potential and make a significant impact on the team in the near future.
