Orban has struggled to secure regular playing time at Lyon, scoring just twice in five appearances since his €14m transfer from KAA Gent in January 2023.

Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor are also reportedly interested in the Nigerian forward, who is likely to be made available by Lyon as they seek to alleviate their financial woes.
