Beauvue completes switch to Lyon from Guingamp


The striker enjoyed red-hot goalscoring form last season and admits he is relishing the prospect of partnering Alexandre Lacazette
Lyon have confirmed that striker Claudio Beauvue has signed for the club after passing a medical.
Beauvue scored 27 goals in all competitions for Ligue 1 rivals Guingamp last season and had been linked with a move to Premier League side West Ham, while the club had also claimed Tottenham and Hull City have been interested.
But he agreed a four-year deal with Lyon last Saturday and will boost the forward line of a team that already boasts France international Alexandre Lacazette and finished second to champions Paris Saint-Germain last season.
"It is a great pride to be here," Beauvue told Lyon's official website. "It is an honour to be part of this great club.
"I expect this to be a season of great performances, first and foremost collectively, but also individually.
"It is very tempting to imagine playing under the same colours as Alexandre Lacazette."
