Nicolas Tagliafico
33-Year-Old
Lyon
Ligue 1
OUT
Injury Ankle
Est. Return 2/22/2026
Will miss one month
Tagliafico (ankle) will miss at least one month to recover from his injury, coach Paulo Fonseca said in the press conference, according to Le Progres.
ANALYSIS
Tagliafico suffered a significant ankle injury in Thursday's win over Young Boys and will miss about one month to recover from the issue. This is a blow for the Gones since he has been a regular starter in the backline and Abner Vinicius (groin) is a doubt as well. If the Brazilian had to miss some time as well, Ainsley Maitland-Niles is the main option to start at left-back.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Headed to Lyon
Tagliafico will join Lyon in a €4M move and will soon take the medicals, Olé reports.
ANALYSIS
Tagliafico has seemed on the verge of leaving Ajax multiple times in the past few years, and Lyon finally managed to convince the Dutch club to sell him as he was getting close to the end of his contract. The Ligue 1 missed out on Tyrell Malacia, who joined Manchester United but bounced back with another solid option for the left-back role.
