Celtic-linked Michel-Ange Balikwisha is reportedly in advanced discussions to join a team in France.
The Parkhead club have been consistently named as potential suitors for Balikwisha, who scored four goals and registered three assists in 17 appearances for Royal Antwerp last season.
According to topmercato.com, however, he is in advanced talks to join a Ligue 1 side who have qualified for Europe.
Leeds United, Southampton, Hoffenheim and Borussia Monchengladbach are also said to be in the running for Balikwisha's signature, although he appears to be closing in on a move to France.

Brendan Rodgers not at Celtic to 'maintain' as he addresses contract future head on
There is no mention of Celtic in topmercato.com's report.
It comes after manager Brendan Rodgers admitted on Friday that there are still gaps in his squad that need to be filled before the end of the transfer window.
He said: "We’ve still got a wee bit of work to do. I think that it’s a huge credit to the guys who are here and how well they’ve worked. But the squad will hopefully look different again come the end of the window.
"We know the work that we need to do, and it’s my responsibility to convince the club that we really need them. I’m not doing that job as well as maybe what I can, but I will continue to pursue that because it’s something that’s important for us."
