Saint Etienne coach Christophe Galtier has announced Max Gradel will leave this summer.
The former Leeds United winger has been scouted by the likes of Liverpool, Hull City and Southampton this season.
"Gradel? We will not keep him, but we will sell well because we know how to sell our players," said Galtier.
"He's expressed the wish to go to England and we will need to try to fulfill this wish even if nothing is officially decided."
Gradel had four years with Leicester City as a junior.
