Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas has suggested that Barcelona defender Yerry Mina is interested in a move to the French club.
Mina has been heavily linked with an exit from the Catalan giants this summer, and Everton have allegedly met the asking price for the Colombia international.
However, Aulas has dismissed those claims by indicating that Lyon are still in contention to secure a deal for the 23-year-old.
On Twitter, Aulas said: "Farewell Lyon, Mina is going to Everton for €32 million. I don't think that information is accurate.
"Yerry is still very interested in l'OL. We also want him to come to Lyon so he can play the Champions League."
Manchester United are also said to hold an interest in tying up a deal for Mina before August 9.
