Lyon set to snap up Briand |
Rennes striker Jimmy Briand will join Lyon next Tuesday, according to Les Gones president Jean-Michel Aulas.
Briand, who missed much of last season through injury, has been linked with a move away from the Route de Lorient for the past two years.
He finally looks to be on his way, and the 24-year-old appears set to fill the void left by out-of-contract Sidney Govou at the Stade Gerland.
"We can say without reservation that Jimmy Briand is coming to Lyon on June 15 to pass the medical examination," Aulas said. "We have already reached agreement with him. There are just some details to sort with Rennes."
He added: "We have wanted to sign him for four years."
