Nabil Fekir is a French forward who currently plays for Real Betis and was born on 18th July 1993. Able to play anywhere in the attack, he broke through at Lyon playing as a No.10. Initially, OL rejected him as a kid, but after impressing in a friendly against them, they resigned him in 2011. Fekir would make his professional debut in 2013, but wouldn't really show his potential until the following campaign. Fekir would grab nine assists and 13 goals in 34 games and was named Ligue 1 Young Player of the Year. He also decided to commit to France, earning his first cap. Injury kept him out of the majority of the following season, rupturing his knee against Portugal in September 2015.
