Grenier has just one year left on his contract at Lyon, and the club are ready to sell the player now to recoup at least some cash from a player sale. It is understood that the player wants to extend his stay if possible, and talks will commence next week about a new deal at Lyon.<br />

"I know Lyon have rejected an offer from Arsenal. Of course it's flattering that clubs are interested in me," Grenier revealed.<br />

"It's hard for me to talk about my future now because I'm not yet certain of it. I prefer to wait to be 100 percent sure of what is going to happen before I do it."
