Lyon want Madrid striker

by Laurent Picard , 18 June 2009

Lyon have revealed their interest in Real Madrid striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.

The Holland international has constantly been linked with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu despite scoring eight goals in 20 league games since completing a big money move from Ajax during the January transfer window.

OL, whose seven-year reign in the French league came to an end this season, are looking to bolster their attacking options, and their chairman Jean-Michel Aulas has affirmed that Huntelaar is a transfer target.

Madrid are expected to allow their Dutch contingent to move on in the summer, with Arjen Robben and Royston Drenthe both been linked to foreign clubs.

"Huntelaar is a very interesting player for us," Aulas said.

"We wanted him before, but at this time might made rights and he finally joined Real Madrid."
