Lyon reward talented duo with contract extensions

Lyon midfielders Nabil Fekir and Corentin Tolisso, who were revelations during last season's Ligue 1 campaign, have extended their contracts until 2019, the club announced Tuesday.

19-year-old Tolisso only signed his first contract in October, but has now added three years onto his original deal which was set to expire in 2016.

He scored one goal in 14 league appearances for Lyon as well as appearing in their Europa League campaign on nine occasions.

Fekir, 20, also added an extra three years onto his first contract which he signed last June.

The 20-year-old played 11 times in last season's Ligue 1, scoring once and registering two assists in the process.
