Lyon's Nicolás Tagliafico to miss several weeks with injury

Lyon full-back Nicolás Tagliafico is expected to be sidelined for several weeks due to a muscle injury, as announced by manager Paulo Fonseca. The injury was confirmed just before OL's home match against Crystal Palace in the Europa League. Tagliafico's absence comes as a significant setback for Lyon, who are also missing Mohamed Ouédraogo for months due to a knee injury. Tagliafico, who recently returned from the World Cup, has struggled with form, making only three appearances this season, with just one start. Lyon will now rely on Abner Vinícius to cover the left back position.
