Georgia's Georges Mikautadze has been rewarded for his strong performances at the European Championships with a lucrative transfer.

The 23-year-old striker, co-top scorer at the European Championships with three goals, is moving to Ligue 1 side Olympique Lyon after a season on loan at French second division club Metz.
