Nabil Fekir opens-up on Lyon future amid Liverpool Speculation.
The Scintillating Lyon attacker Nabil Fekir has insists that he has all the 'go ahead order' from the president Jean-Michel Aulas to discuss his future any moment he feels like.
The 24-year-old has been strongly tipped to join the Reds in recent months as Klopp still looks for a replacement for Philippe Coutinho, who joined Barcelona back in January, and the soon to be departed Emre Can.
Fekir has remained coy when probed about his future plans in the past but, following talk that a £62m deal is already in place to join the Reds, the France international has admitted that departing Lyon this summer is not out of the question.
"The president told me, like he told everyone else when they signed their contracts, that we have the possibility to talk whenever I want to leave," he told L'Equipe.
"Nobody signs for life in a club. It doesn't work like that. But I don't have a free pass to leave. I have a contract until 2020. I'll let destiny handle the rest.
"I'm in Lyon for two more games and then we'll see. For now, there's nothing. The president trusts me and I feel good at Lyon."
But with Liverpool yet to spend any of the £142 million received on Philippe Coutinho‘s move to Barcelona in January they can certainly afford a major outlay this summer.
The 24-year-old has being in a blistering form in the Ligue 1, scoring a combined total of 22 goals and seven assists in 38 appearances from an attacking midfield position.; form which has brought him to the attention of the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea.
The France International has 55 goals in 148 Lyon appearances since debuting for the club back in 2013.
