Lyon midfielder Corentin Tolisso, who is of interest to Premier League champions Chelsea, is looking unlikely to be on the move to Serie A in the summer window.

The 22-year-old midfielder’s future at the club has been subject to much speculation over the last few months, with Juventus, AC Milan and Inter all keen.




Italian champions Juventus were considered to be favourites to sign the Frenchman, but according to Italian outlet Tutto Mercato, the Bianconeri’s attention has been drawn towards other targets.

Juventus are looking at other options in the market and it has been suggested that the French midfielder is no longer a priority target for the club in the upcoming transfer window.
 


Inter and AC Milan are also interested in Tolisso, but the midfielder has told the Lyon hierarchy to listen exclusively to offers from clubs in the Champions League as he wants to play at Europe’s elite level.

With Inter and AC Milan believed to be out of the reckoning and Juventus looking at other targets, the midfielder could end up in England ahead of next season.

Arsenal have long been linked with a move for him, but it seems Chelsea are showing more concrete interest in him as the club discussed the possibility of signing him when they met the Lyon hierarchy earlier this week.
