# Traore reportedly agrees Lyon switch

Chelsea attacker Bertrand Traore has been eyeing a move away from Stamford Bridge for some time now, and it looks as though he’s set to seal a deal with Lyon.

According to reports in France, the energetic front-man has agreed terms with the Ligue 1 club and is expected to sign this summer.

Interest has been high in Traore in the last couple of months after he enjoyed a successful campaign on loan at Ajax. However, it’s looking increasingly likely that Lyon have won the race to sign him from the Blues.

Judging by GFFN’s report, it looks as though there are just minor details to iron out in the deal for both clubs with agreements over bonuses still to be reached.

Traore is undoubtedly a player with potential, but it appears his future is sealed and it won’t be at Chelsea.
