Maxwell Cornet (23), very often used by Rudi Garcia in the left-back position, tries to adapt to this new position. The Ivorian international has admitted that he enjoys this position and that he could permanently take it.

“It doesn’t change much about winging. You just go lower and you have to be carefully defensive. (…) Frankly speaking, I want it. It crossed my mind. I am open minded. As I said to those around me, the most important thing is to have the catch. For that, it’s necessary to discuss with the coach and staff about their expectations.” Cornet told to the RMC microphone.

Maxwel Cornet arrived at Olympique Lyonnais in 2015 and is under contract until June 2023. Last season (2019-2020), he was on the pitch 34 times, for a total of four goals and three assists.
