Trez could fill Benz place at Lyon

Trez could fill Benz place at Lyon

Karim Benzema's departure to Real could open the door for David Trezeguet to join Olympique Lyonnais.

Juventus have been wanting to sell the French striker for quite some time now and according to reports from both sides of the Alps, Lyon have already earmarked Trezeguet as their main target.

The 32-year-old striker has been priced at £8 million.

Juventus left Trezeguet on the bench for much of this season - even after his recovery from double knee surgery - and he has been looking for another club for some time.

The problem so far has been finding a side willing to pay his wages, but Lyon could be open to the move after selling Benzema.

In turn, the cash raised by Juventus in selling Trezeguet would be used to bring in a younger striker such as Lazio's Goran Pandev or Villarreal's Giuseppe Rossi.
