What happened. Milan have agreed a straight loan of Zachary Athekame to Olympique Lyonnais, with no option to make it permanent, according to French reports.

Lyon will cover Athekame's full salary during the campaign.
He will return to Milan in the summer of 2027.
Athekame joined Milan a year ago for €10m plus add-ons.
