Jason Denayer TEAMtalk

Lyon have signed Belgium defender Jason Denayer on a permanent deal from Manchester City, the clubs have announced.

The 23-year-old has agreed a four-year deal with the Ligue 1 outfit for a fee thought to be in the region of £9million.

Denayer came through the academy ranks at City but did not make a first-team breakthrough.

He moves after two loan spells at Galatasaray and further stints at Celtic and Sunderland in recent years.
