Lyon are interested in signing Nacer Chadli from West Bromwich Albion in the summer transfer window, according to France Football.

According to the report, Chadli has sparked interest among a number of clubs with his performances for Belgium at the ongoing World Cup in Russia.

Good move for Nacer Chadli?

With West Brom having been relegated to the Championship from the Premier League at the end of last season, it is hard to see former Tottenham Hotspur man Chadli play in the second tier of English football, especially as he has done well for Belgium in Russia.

It does seem inevitable that the 28-year-old, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, will leave The Hawthorns this summer.

Lyon are a massive club in France and will be aiming to challenge for the Ligue 1 title next season.

Having finished third in the French league last season, Bruno Genesio’s side will feature in the group stage of 2018-19 Champions League – and that can only be attractive to Chadli.
