According to a report from French media outlet Buzz Sport, Lyon officials have made contact with Tottenham ace Mousa Dembele’s representatives, as they look to bring him to France in a deal thought to be worth in the region of €15 million (£13.4 million).

The 31-year-old’s future at Spurs remains uncertain to say the least, with just one year remaining on his current deal with the club.

Dembele has bene linked with a whole host of clubs including Inter Milan, Juventus and Napoli, according to a report from Sky Sports News.

Lyon have now entered the race for the Belgium international’s signature, though, according to Buzz Sport.

The French publication claims that the Ligue 1 outfit have contacted Dembele’s representatives, and are prepared to pay somewhere in the region of £13.4 million to prise him away from Tottenham this summer.

Whether that will be an acceptable fee for the 31-year-old is doubtful, however, especially with so many more clubs believed to be interested in obtaining his signature.

Unless Dembele signs a new deal with Spurs, however, he will be almost certain to leave the Lilywhites this summer, but quite where he will be plying his trade this season remains to be seen.
