Lyon manager Bruno Génésio on Nabil Fékir in full: “I think that he is looking at two possibilities.”

Speaking at a press conference this afternoon, Lyon manager Bruno Génésio discussed the future of club captain Nabil Fékir.

“I am working under the assumption that he will stay with us. He wants to take the next step. The president has offered him the chance to leave. We will see after the World Cup. If Nabil is here, it makes my job easier. I would be happy to keep him. I think that he is looking at two possibilities: to stay to play the Champions’ League with us or to leave to join a bigger club. I would have liked him to play more for France. There is still, I hope three matches to come with the French national team.”
