Amine Gouiri’s goals for Nice against Lens in Sunday’s Ligue 1 encounter means that the Algeria prospect has broken a club record that had stood for 70 years.
In bagging a brace against the Blood and Gold, Gouiri became the youngest player in Nice history to have found the net at least twice in his debut French elite division game.
According to Opta, the last player to score twice on his Eagles debut was Mario Balotelli in the 3-2 triumph over Olympique Marseille on September 11, 2016.
