Corentin Tolisso, Vice-Captain of Olympique Lyonnais, has established itself this season as a central and essential element of the team. Following a remarkable performance against Auxerre, he consolidated his status as a major player, thus integrating the prestigious top 30 of the club’s best decisive smugglers. His influence extends far beyond his pasts, demonstrating a versatility and global contribution to the Lyon game, as confirmed by his impressive statistics: eight achievements and nine assists from all competitions.
Revealing once again the profile of the player “box to box” that he has been in the past, Tolisso is distinguished by his power in duels, his effectiveness in defense and his constant presence in attack. Its regularity is underlined by a consequent playing time, exceeding 3000 minutes this season, and by a lack of replacement in Ligue 1 since January 4. This consistency reflects its importance within the team and its ability to maintain a high level of performance despite the steady pace of meetings.
By offering Rayan Cherki a decisive pass during the match against Auxerre, Tolisso engraved his name a little deeper in the history of Olympique Lyonnais, thus joining an illustrious gallery of players, including Serge Chiesa, Sidney Govou, Alexandre Lacazette and Maxwel Cornet. He is now the ninth player to be in three top 30 separate from the club, consolidating his legacy as an iconic figure on the Lyon squad.
