Rémi Himbert falls out of favor with Lyon coach Paulo Fonseca

Summary

Rémi Himbert, an 18-year-old striker for Olympique Lyonnais, is reportedly experiencing a decline in standing within coach Paulo Fonseca's squad. After a promising start last season with three goals and one assist in 11 appearances, Himbert has only featured once this season in a match against Toulouse FC. His previous momentum included two hat-tricks during pre-season, but he now faces the challenge of regaining the coaching staff's trust to return to the first-team lineup.
