Laurent Blanc plays down Alexandre Lacazette, Nabil Fekir moves

PSG coach Laurent Blanc pours cold water on reports linking him with summer moves for Lyon pair Alexandre Lacazette and Nabil Fekir.

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has played down speculation linking the Ligue 1 champions with moves for Lyon pair Alexandre Lacazette and Nabil Fekir this summer.

The duo have emerged as two of France's hottest properties this season, with Lacazette's 27 league goals helping Les Gones rival PSG for their title.

Fekir - who has netted 12 times - and his teammate have both been linked with big-money switches to the French capital, but Blanc has moved to play down the rumours.

"Lacazette and Fekir? Lyon have some good young players, some I like, but it stops there," he told reporters.

"I do not want to destabilise anyone. When I am asked the question about the two at Lyon, I think a lot of good but that's it.

"We are working on next season, of course, but I will not tell you about who."

Lacazette, 23, is contracted to Stade de Garland until 2018, while 21-year-old Fekir has a deal until 2019.
