Gabin Bernardeau
LOR
Scores winner off bench
Bernardeau scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one corner in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Paris FC.
Analysis: Bernardeau scored the team's only goal in the match, which was his first in the league campaign as well. He scored with his only shot on goal despite playing just 24 minutes. Other than that, Bernardeau also made a block and a clearance.
Starting every league match
Bernardeau has started each of Lorient's first five Ligue 1 games in an attacking midfield role under new coach Alexandre Dujeux but still has to score his first Ligue 1 goal.
Analysis: Bernardeau has played 333 minutes, coming off before the 76th minute in each appearance. The 20-year-old has yet to record a goal or assist, but his five straight starts mark an immediate place in the lineup for the Merlus. He has created three chances and made five shot attempts and will look to contribute to his first goal when Ligue 1 resumes after the international break.
Joins Lorient
Bernardeau has completed a transfer to Lorient from Nice, according to his new club.
Analysis: Bernardeau is on the move this summer, as he moves from one French club to another after signing a four-year deal with Lorient. He was a minor piece of the Nice team last season after signing with them only a year ago, earning one start in four appearances while only playing 93 minutes. He will now have far more chances for minutes with his new club, hoping to get his career off to a fast start at the age of 20.
