Aouar demands Lyon exit amid Arsenal, Man City interest

Houssem Aouar has told Lyon he wants to leave the club this summer.

Arsenal and Manchester City are both extremely keen on the 22-year-old, who has starred for his boyhood club over the past three seasons.

And L'Equipe - via GFFN - says Aouar is ready for a change of scenery.

Lyon director Juninho has confirmed the club have knocked back an offer from Arsenal which included Matteo Guendouzi.

The Ligue 1 want cash and nothing else. €60m to be exact.

And with Juventus and PSG also interested, Jean-Michel Aulas will be hoping to establish a bidding war for the France U21 international.
