Manchester City have asked Lyon to keep them up to speed over the future of Nabil Fekir.
The Daily Express says Fekir, 25, is set to leave his home town club this summer just 12 months after a move to Liverpool fell through at the 11th hour after the results of a medical.
Jurgen Klopp is still interested in a player who he almost signed for £53 million but will attempt to get him for a lower fee given his knee problems.
City boss Pep Guardiola is interested but his priority for this summer remains a defensive midfielder with Atletico Madrid's Rodri his number one target.
Guardiola also has another Lyon star Tanguy Ndombele on his Etihad shopping list as he looks to find a replacement for his ageing star Fernandinho.
Man City are also at risk of losing Ilkay Gundogan and Leroy Sane.
