Lyon Secures Loan Deal for Attikame from Milan

Olympique Lyon has reached a verbal agreement with Milan to sign Swiss defender Zakaria Aitakami on loan, according to French journalist Fabrice Hawkins, and confirmed by Fabrizio Romano.

According to the details, the deal will be a direct loan for one season without an option to buy, with Lyon covering 100% of the player's salary throughout the loan period.

Atikami is 21 years old and plays as a right-back. He joined AC Milan from Young Boys in the summer of 2025 for around €10 million, with a contract lasting until June 2030.

The loan aims to provide the player with a greater opportunity to participate and gain regular playing time with Lyon, while Milan will retain all rights to him, with Attikami set to return to the Italian club at the end of the season.
