Fonseca plans to rotate as Lyon face Anderlecht

As RMC Sport reports, Lyon’s coach wants to use his squad depth to push in Ligue 1 and the Europa League.

By TuFutbolero Newsroom

Lyon coach Rúben Fonseca says, according to RMC Sport, that he’s pleased to have strong bench depth this season so the team can go hard in both Ligue 1 and the Europa League.

Rotations for the week

The manager intends to make changes this Wednesday when Lyon take on Anderlecht, with kick-off listed for 21:00, as the outlet explains.

Fonseca’s message is clear: with multiple competitions running in parallel, maintaining intensity isn’t just about fresh legs in the starting XI, but also about planned rotations that keep the team’s level intact.

Europa League focus

The visit to Anderlecht is framed as a chance for Lyon to compete at full throttle in Europe, while also managing the demands of domestic matches.

For this game, the big question is how many names Fonseca will shuffle and whether Lyon can keep their style despite the changes.
