Chelsea are reportedly lining up a player exchange deal involving Loic Remy for Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette.
France international Lacazette has scored 30 goals this term and has impressed for the Ligue 1 side.
Lacazette's performances have attracted the attention of Jose Mourinho, and the Blues boss is willing to offer £15m and Remy to OL, according to The Sun.
Remy has been largely used as back-up to first-choice striker Diego Costa since signing from Queens Park Rangers last summer, but Mourinho is keen to replace the ex-R's star with the 23-year-old Lacazette.
Lacazette has previously been linked to Liverpool, but the Frenchman recently revealed that he would be keen on a contract extension at Stade Gerland.
