Lyon's chief Jean-Michel Aulas has confirmed that he wants to sign Chelsea striker Bertrand Traore.
The youngster enjoyed an impressive campaign at Ajax last season and has attracted the interest of European football's elite.
Aulas has claimed that talks are ongoing with the Blues but an agreement is yet to be reached.
Traore is unlikely to secure a regular first-team place in Antonio Conte's side and will probably leave Stamford Bridge on a permanent basis.
"We want to bring Bertrand Traore to the club," Aulas declared.
"There are advanced talks there, but many clubs are interested.
"We absolutely want to do the deal."
