The Clermont Foot transfer window has finally begun. The discussions were, logically, carried out in the greatest discretion. They allowed the arrival of a new player. The name of Lucas Da Cunha has been circulating since this morning, his loan was formalized at the end of the afternoon by Clermont Foot.
This 20-year-old attacking midfielder is from Roanne. He was trained in Rennes where he collected selections in the various French youth teams. Lucas Da Cunha was transferred to OGC Nice in 2020, before being loaned for a season to the Swiss side Lausanne (28 matches and 6 goals). This left-hander was a complementary player in the rich Nice squad. He still played 10 matches this season, 392 minutes of play and 5 starts (including the first leg at the Montpied stadium).
Lucas Da Cunha therefore comes to find more playing time in Auvergne. He will strengthen the Clermont group, which we know is a little tight for Ligue 1. He will not be qualified for the late match against Strasbourg on Wednesday and should not play the match against Nice in three weeks. He will wear number 10.
