Orban set for Lyon exit

Orban secured a €13m move from KAA Gent to the French side after just a year in Belgium.

He joined Gent from Norwegian club Stabaek Fotbal during the 2023 January transfer window after impressing in the Norwegian second tier, helping Stabaek gain promotion to the topflight division with 22 goals in 27 matches.

In his first season in Belgium, Orban consistently hugged the headlines for his rapid goal turnover, netting 32 times in 52 appearances for Gent.It was his eye-catching performance that earned him the move to the seven-time Ligue 1 champions, who handed him the prestigious number 9 jersey following his signing.

However, Orban was unable to replicate the instant hit that he was known for with both Stabaek and Gent.In 16 appearances for Lyon, he managed three goals, forcing the club into the transfer market in search of another striker.

With the permanent signing of Guinea-Bissau forward Mame Balde from Troyes and the arrival of Georges Mikautadze, Orban faces stiff competition and a possible exit via a loan move.
