Lucas Paquetá was elected the best player of the month of October in the French Championship. With six goals and three assists in 17 matches played for Lyon this season, the Brazilian has been one of the great highlights of Ligue 1, eclipsing stars like Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and compatriot Neymar.
The midfielder was already recognized last season, when he was present in the championship selection, alongside Marquinhos, Neymar, Mbappé and Memphis Depay, currently a Barcelona player.
On its social networks, Ligue 1 congratulated the player and posted a video with the best moments of Paquetá in the competition.
