Olympique Lyonnais has a strong interest in Gonzalo Petit, a 19-year-old Uruguayan striker contracted to Betis, and is currently in discussions with the Sevilla-based club for a transfer. It is reported that Midtjylland is the main rival to the French club for the player's signature. Petit is expected to leave Andalusia as Betis has filled its non-EU player quota, and the club's priority is a sale to recover the 4.5 million euros it paid for him.
