Lyon are readying summer bid for Dijon midfielder Benjamin Corgnet, French newspaper Le Parisien has revealed.
The 25-year-old has been attracting a lot of interest with his performances this season and he is expected to leave the French minnows at the end of the season.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle have already shown interest in the highly rated midfielder, whereas Le Parisien reports that Lyon have also joined the race.
According to the French newspaper, les Gones see Corgnet as a perfect replacement for Kim Kallstrom, who looks set to leave Gerland at the end of the season.
The Swedish midfielder was on the verge of joining Rubin Kazan in February and the Russian club are expected to wrap up the deal as soon as the summer transfer window opens.
Lyon are prepared to offer around €6 million for the Dijon star, although les Gones could face a stiff competition from other interested clubs.
