Hoffenheim paid €9 million for the player, with an additional €3 million in potential add-ons.
Gift Orban, 22, struggled for playing time at Lyon after joining the club from Belgian team Gent a year ago.
He scored five goals in 21 appearances for Lyon but hadn’t featured in a league match since September.
Lyon wished Orban well in his new move, with a statement saying, “We wish Gift well in his new adventure.”
Hoffenheim, on the other hand, believes Orban’s pace and width will strengthen their attack.
Hoffenheim director, Andreas Schicker said, “In Gift Orban we have found exactly the fast striker… that we were looking for. We are convinced that his skills will give our team greater variety in attack.”
