Lyon manager Hubert Fournier has warned clubs off Alexandre Lacazette by insisting that the striker will not be going anywhere this summer.
The 24-year-old, who scored 31 goals in 38 games last season, has been linked with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Real Madrid in recent weeks.
However, Fournier is hopeful that the France international forward will stay at the Stade de Gerland ahead of a busy campaign for Lyon.
"I haven't got much to say. He has said he wants to stay with us," the coach is quoted as saying by the Evening Standard.
"Of course some clubs are going to be attracted to the sort of player he is, but he is under contract at Lyon and, with all of the different competitions we have this season with the Champions League and the domestic French cups, we obviously want to keep him at the club."
Lacazette has scored one goal in eight appearances for France.
