Trained at Paris Saint-Germain, the midfielder had joined LOSC in 2017. He played this season 42 games in all competitions. His statistical record also includes two assists, including one in the Europa League. A year ago, he was close to leaving LOSC to join Newcastle, but the financial demands of the Dogues had prompted the Magpies to abandon the track. The 22-year-old defensive midfielder, who had a good season in Ligue 1, may become French champion with Lille before moving to the Premier League next season.
