“I am only thinking about this. After the match, we'll see.”

Lyon currently sit in the third and final spot in France, but hold a mere one point advantage over Marseille with one game remaining.

“Nobody signs for life in a club. It doesn't work like that.

“But I don't have a free pass to leave. I have a contract until 2020. I'll let destiny handle the rest.

‘I'm in Lyon for two more games and then we'll see. For now, there's nothing.

“The president trusts me and I feel good at Lyon.”
