Karim Benzema is keen to remain at Lyon for at least another season according to his agent Karim Djaziri.
Manchester United have made a bid for the 21-year old striker and recent reports have suggested that a move would be made immediately but the Frenchman has reiterated his desire to stay in France.
"Karim is on holiday at the moment and he is not thinking of moving," Djaziri said.
"He wants to stay in France for another year so that he can prepare for the World Cup and I think that Sir Alex knows this.
"Perhaps he wants to make an offer to Lyon. If that happens, then Karim will think about it, but as things stand, Karim wants to stay with Lyon for another year."
