Lyon star names Arsenal, Man City in list of ‘dream’ clubs

Lyon star Nabil Fekir has given his list of ‘dream’ clubs to move to, and has included a Premier League duo.

The 24-year-old has had a fantastic season so far in Ligue 1, amassing a combined 14 goals and assists in 14 league games so far.

Recent reports have linked Fekir with a move to Barcelona, while Arsenal have also been credited with interest as a possible replacement for Mesut Ozil.

“There’s nothing concrete with Barcelona,” he told TF1’s ‘Telefoot’. “Spain makes me dream: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid. Those are great clubs.

“But there is also England, with Manchester City and Arsenal.

“Is this my last season at Lyon? I don’t know what the future holds for me. I’ve still got two years left on my contract. So, I’m still Lyonnais.”

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has previously insisted that his star man is not for sale this winter at any price.

“Obviously there’s interest, but we’ll do everything to keep Nabil. And I think he wants to stay,” he said in November.
