Rayan Cherki is almost certain to leave Lyon in the upcoming summer transfer window after a stellar season in France.
He has suitors in Italy and Germany, but according to Le Parisien via GFFN, the forward is certain to move to the Premier League in the summer transfer window.
Liverpool are among the clubs that are interested in the winger and are keeping tabs on his situation at Lyon ahead of the end of the season.
The Merseyside giants have made enquiries to probe the possibility of taking him to Anfield in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Lyon are expected to sell the winger, and they are expected to accept offers of around the £19m mark in the upcoming weeks and months.
Manchester City and Tottenham are also interested in Cherki, but the Frenchman is said to prefer a move to Anfield over other options at this stage.
