According to French football magazine L'Equipe French champions Olympique Lyon are interested in Feyenoord and Holland striker Dirk Kuijt. Lyon chairman Aulas is a big admirer of Kuijt, who sees Kuijt as their new top target after Milan Baros, Aulas' first target, rejected a move to Lyon.

Baros' club Liverpool is an other club with serious interest in Kuijt, it's was being rumoured that Liverpool chairman Rick Parry was off to Holland, last weekend, to talk to Feyenoord.

Dirk Kuijt isn't the only player on Lyon's shortlist. Mwaruwai (Auxerre), Drogba (Chelsea) and Owen (Real Madrid) are also being tracked closely.

Earlier this week Lyon signed French international Benoit Pedretti from Olympique Marseille for £4 million.
