The Lyon President doesn't seem to think £8M will cut it, he wants the same price that Bayern got for Gotze.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed interest in Lyon midfielder Clement Grenier.
The 22-year-old has been likened to Samir Nasri in his style, and is rated at around £8million by his club.
Grenier, who scored on Sunday night against Rennes in front of Gunners scouts, came close to quitting the Stade Gerland last summer.
However, he seized on injuries to key man - including former Gunners target Yoann Gourcuff - to make 27 appearances, notching seven goals and providing eight assists.
And now the France Under 21 international could be set to earn a move to the Premier League.
Wenger told French programme Telefoot: 'We are following him. His intelligence of play pleases me. He has interesting qualities. He reminds me of Nasri.'
