Lyon have opened talks with Chelsea for Bertrand Traore.
Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas was in London on Wednesday to discuss a possible deal for Traore.
Chelsea are reportedly demanding £17million for the Burkina Faso international and his wage demands could be a step too far for Lyon.
Speaking about his future last week, Traore said: "I think I had a great season [with Ajax] but I don't decide to stay at Chelsea or move.
"I will see what my future will be."
