Said Benrahma has permanently left West Ham to join Olympique Lyon in France. The French club has exercised the purchase option for £12.3 million (approximately €14.4 million). Benrahma has signed a three-year contract (until 2027) with Lyon, and West Ham will retain a 10% sell-on clause.

Saïd Benrahma, who joined Olympique Lyonnais on loan this winter from West Ham, has impressed the OL management. With 3 goals and 3 assists in 12 Ligue 1 matches, the Algerian international (25 caps) has convinced OL's staff to keep him for the next season. The loan included a purchase option, which OL will now exercise. The duration of his future contract is not yet known.
