Published: May 23, 2016
Allnigeriasoccer.com has been informed that seven-time French Ligue 1 champions Olympique Lyonnais have set the wheels in motion over a summer move for Nigerian striker Iorbee Godwin Zaki.
The 21-year-old has been invited to train with Les Gones with a view to penning a contract if he impresses first-team manager Bruno Génésio.
A product of Lobi Stars, Zaki is now a free agent following the expiration of his contract with Maltese club Mqabba.
Before he arrived the Island Nation in October 2015, he represented Finnish club Oulun Palloseura.
Apart from the interest from Lyon, the young attacker is on the radar of teams based in Greece, Spain and Finland.
