Lyon are believed to have made a bid of around £14million for the South American.
“We’re close to an agreement with OL,” Lille president Michel Seydoux told L’Equipe TV.
“This will be done in the next few days.
“I’ve opened a window for this player because we received an exceptional offer.
“After three years of good and loyal service, I want to see him continue his progression.
“But he will be absolutely the only departure.”
