French agent Jean-Pierre Bernes has confirmed he's now split from Lyon captain Nabil Fekir.

Fekir has left the Bernes as he continues to be linked with Liverpool and other clubs.

Bernes told Europe 1: "I terminated the contract on (Thursday).

"It was a choice (Fekir) took. He will certainly look for another agent. Like all human relationships, from time to time you can have a difference of opinion on someone's future or their behaviour."

Real Madrid and Chelsea are also among the clubs linked with a move this summer for Fekir, who has been with Lyon since the age of 12.

But Bernes continued: "To get into one of the top 10 clubs is very difficult, you must have an approach.

"You must not place too much importance on the role of an agent. When you have a big player and a big club wants him, it is the club who come to see you. You are not soliciting interest."
