Lois Openda is a Belgian striker, born on 16 February 2000 (age 26), and now with Lyon. His market value is around £51m, according to Transfermarkt, which tells its own story about the level he has reached.
His sharpest league season came at RB Leipzig in 2023–24, when he scored 24 goals in 34 appearances. That remains the clearest marker of his career so far: a forward moving beyond promise and producing at a serious rate.
At Lyon in 2026–27, Openda has made four Ligue 1 appearances and scored once. He has also played four times in Champions League qualifying, scoring once, and once in the Europa League, giving him nine appearances and two goals in all competitions for the club.
His career is still being shaped, but the outline is clear enough: a Belgian striker with a strong Leipzig season behind him and a new chapter at Lyon now under way.
