Lyon scouting Chelsea youngster Bertrand Traore

EXCLUSIVE

Florian Maurice, Lyon's head of recruitment, has returned to watch more of Chelsea's Bertrand Traore ahead of his match at loan club, Ajax, against Panathinaikos in the Europa League.

The 21-year-old only signed a new deal at Chelsea in August, but Lyon are continuing to watch him after seeing the Burkino Faso international against AZ on November 6.

Chelsea regard Traore highly and would take some convincing to sell their young talent, who has done well on loan in the Eredivisie, and has appeared in 18 matches while scoring five goals for the Dutch giants.
