Lyon sign Liverpool midfielder Morton for £15m

Lyon have signed midfielder Tyler Morton from Liverpool for £15m

Morton joined Liverpool's academy aged seven and was handed his senior debut in 2021.

The 22-year-old struggled to force his way into the first team on a regular basis, making 14 appearances across all competitions, and spent time on loan in the Championship with Hull and Blackburn.

He helped England's under-21 side win the European Championship earlier this summer.

Lyon were demoted to France's second tier earlier in the summer due to their poor financial state but were reinstated to Ligue 1 after winning their appeal.
