Milan transfers Atteyemi to Lyon
Zakari Atikami, the Swiss defender born in Geneva in 2004, has transferred from Italian club AC Milan to French team Olympique Lyon on a loan deal until June 30, 2027, with no option to buy. Atikami joined Milan last summer from Swiss club Young Boys for 10 million euros, making 29 appearances, scoring two goals, and providing two assists. Although he has not yet played for the Swiss national team at the senior level, he has featured 17 times with the U-21 national team between September 2023 and March 2026. His transfer comes as part of Lyon’s efforts to strengthen their defense, as they are currently competing in the qualifying playoffs for the Champions League, facing Fenerbahçe of Turkey first in Turkey and then in France. Lyon will start their French Ligue 1 season with a match against Toulouse on August 22.
