Lyon have announced the signing of Islam Slimani on an 18-month deal from Leicester City which will run until June 2022.
The Ligue 1 club moved for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations winner following the departure of Moussa Dembele to Atletico Madrid on an initial loan, with an option to buy.
Slimani joins Rudi Garcia's side on a free transfer having played just 19 minutes of Premier League football for Leicester City in this campaign.
The 32-year-old is expected to boost Lyon's attacking force which already has Cameroon's Karl Toko Ekambi, Zimbabwe's Tino Kadewere and Ivory Coast's Maxwel Cornet.
