Ofificial | Afonso Moreira joins Bayer Leverkusen from Lyon

Olympique Lyonnais have officially confirmed the departure of Afonso Moreira (21) to Bayer Leverkusen. The Portuguese forward has made the switch to the Bundesliga for a fee in the region of €32m, according to reports.

Despite only costing Les Gones €2m to secure his services from Sporting, Moreira proved to be crucial for OL as they qualified for the UEFA Champions League last season. The 21-year-old made 37 appearances across all competitions for Lyon, scoring 8 goals and registering 11 assists.
