Makoun ready for Lyon move

French starlet Jean II Makoun is ready to make his 'dream move' to French giants Lyon this summer from Lille. Makoun is expected to quit the club in a £12 million transfer.

Makoun told Sky Sports: "Nothing is done yet, however the club have agreed the transfer fee, the medical will be done and after that we will see, fingers crossed there should not be a big problem.

"It is a big challenge, I am joining the best team in France, it is a dream come true. I wanted to get back into the Champions League and there I am.

"I am looking forward to next season. It is sad to leave Lille but I have to move and win trophies and play in the big stage - there is no bigger stage in France than Lyon."
