Several clubs are reportedly interested in former Celtic midfielder Matt O'Riley.
The Dane is out of the picture at Brighton and Hove Albion as the summer transfer deadline approaches.
O'Riley was ill during pre-season, so missed some of his club's preparations for the new campaign.
He isn't expected to be in Brighton's squad for their Premier League opener against Aston Villa today amid transfer speculation.
Sky Sports reports that French Ligue 1 side Lyon are among a 'number of clubs' from across Europe's top five leagues who have approached Brighton with interest in either a loan or permanent deal for O'Riley.
The transfer window shuts in England on Tuesday, September 1 at 11pm.
