Olympique Lyon defender Jérôme Boateng appeared in court

Boateng is known as one of Germany’s best defenders in recent years. In 2014 he became world champion as a basic player with ‘Die Mannschaft’ and he was also very successful at Bayern Munich. He picked up nine league titles and five DFB-Pokals with the club and in 2013 and 2020 the Champions League was captured.

Boateng’s contract with Bayern expired on June 1, after which he signed transfer-free with Olympique Lyon last week. As a result, he is still waiting for his debut for the team of coach Peter Bosz, who has started the season badly. Lyon are ninth in Ligue 1 with five points from four games.
