Club career

Lyon

A part of the Olympique Lyonnais since 2013, Gouiri signed his first professional contract with Lyon on 3 July 2017 for three years.[3]

An internationally renowned prospect, Gouiri made the bench for Lyon in a Ligue 1 match against FC Girondins de Bordeaux on 10 September 2016 at the age of 16, and debuted for the Lyon B team at the age of 17.[4] He made his first team debut on 19 November 2017 in a 0–0 home draw against Montpellier in Ligue 1. He entered the field after 73 minutes replacing Tanguy Ndombele.[5]

Nice

On 1 July 2020, Gouiri joined fellow Ligue 1 side Nice on a four-year contract for a fee of €7 million.[6][7] On 23 August 2020, he scored two goals in his first competitive match for Nice, in a 2–1 league home win over newly-promoted Lens, becoming the club's youngest player in the last 70 years to have scored at least twice in his club debut in the French top flight.[8] On 29 October 2020, he scored the only goal in a 1–0 win over Hapoel Be'er Sheva in the 2020–21 UEFA Europa League.[9]

International career

A youth international for France, Gouiri was the top scorer at the 2017 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, scoring 7 goals and was the top scorer in the tournament.[10] After his success in the tournament, Gouiri garnered attention of various European clubs and was rated one of the best young talents in the world by The Guardian.[11]
