Lyon complete Jeremy Morel signing

Lyon have completed the signing of left-back Jeremy Morel on a free transfer from Marseille.

The 31-year-old has penned a three-year contract with the Ligue 1 runners-up, after spending the past four seasons at Les Phoceens.

"This is a big step for me after four years at Marseille," Morel told Lyon's official website.

"I hope everything will go well and I can bring my experience to the group.

"It was some weeks that I talked with Lyon. The proposal of a three-year was important in my decision."

Morel began his career at hometown club Lorient, where he made over 200 league appearances.
