Chelsea & Bayern Munich most interested in Nabil Fékir at present (France Football)

France Football magazine cites Chelsea and Bayern Munich as the most interested parties currently in signing Lyon captain Nabil Fékir.

Chelsea are apparently looking for increased creativity in the final third and for someone to shoulder part of the “unlocking” of play burden currently taken on by Eden Hazard. The Blues have been following the player closely and were impressed by his performance at the Ethiad Stadium this season when Manchester City were defeated by Lyon (2-1).

Bayern Munich are the other entity who are scrutinising Fékir’s situation closely, with the Bavarian club having a great relationship with OL, having signed Corentin Tolisso from them 18 months ago.

It seems unlikely that Fékir will command the €60m fee that OL were after this summer, either next month or at the end of the campaign.
