Chelsea have offered Nigerian-born star, Tariq Uwakwe to French giant, Lyon, according to allnigeriasoccer.

Lyon have been offered the chance to sign the England youth player this summer.

The versatile forward had hinted that he wanted to move onto new pastures, preferably a foreign club.

However, Lyon are unlikely to sign the player with the assumption that he would not be ready for first team football straightaway.

The 19-year-old has been offered a contract extension to remain at Stamford Bridge beyond June 30, 2019 but is unwilling to sign.

Uwakwe, who is considered one of the promising players at Chelsea, trained with the first team ahead of the Premier League meeting with Tottenham Hotspur last February.
