Lyon set for talks with Chelsea striker Bertrand Traore

Lyon are due to enter into talks with Chelsea striker Bertrand Traore.

L'Equipe says Lyon are lining up a summer bid for Traore.

Representatives from the French club will soon meet with the 21-year-old in London for talks.

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."
