Ruben Kluivert

Trains fully in preseason

Kluivert trained fully with the Lyon squad on the first day of preseason, confirming he is back fully recovered from his pneumothorax suffered at the end of the season, the club posted.

Analysis: Kluivert had been hospitalized at halftime of the match against Lens after sustaining a chest injury at the end of the season, but his complete participation in the opening preseason session is an encouraging sign that his recovery protocol has gone smoothly. The defender ended the season with two goals, two assists, 28 tackles, 13 interceptions and 63 clearances across 22 appearances, and now looks ready to build toward the 2026/27 campaign in full health.
