The son of French international footballer Nabil Fekir has joined the youth team at Lyon. The young player is set to make his debut for the club's U21 team on Sunday.
Fakih Camavinga, who was born in Senegal but raised in France, is the younger brother of Nabil Fekir, who plays as a forward for Lyon and the France national team. He began his footballing career with AS Monaco before joining Lyon's academy in 2018.
Camavinga made his debut for Lyon's under-17 side in January 2020 and quickly established himself as one of the most promising young talents in French football. In November 2021, he was called up to the senior squad by coach Gérald Gauvin, although he did not feature during that season.
On Sunday, Camavinga will make his debut for Lyon's U21 team in a match against Paris Saint-Germain's youth team. It will be a significant moment in his career as he looks to establish himself as a key player for the club's future.
This move also marks the end of a long journey for Camavinga, who has spent much of his life away from home in France. However, he has shown great promise and determination, and it will be interesting to see how he performs for Lyon's youth team and beyond.
