David Trezeguet has earmarked Lyon as a desirable destination after admitting he would like to play again in France after an 11-year absence.

The 33-year-old former France striker currently plays for Spanish side Hercules in La Liga after spending 10 years with Juventus in Serie A.

The Rouen-born player has scored 11 goals in 26 matches in Spain this season but he has turned his attention to a return to his homeland for a second stint after five years between 1995-2000 at Monaco.

Trezeguet told L'Equipe TV: "Emotionally, I love Monaco. This is my club.

"But other teams have more ambition, like Lyon.

"This is a club that is ambitious and seeks to win titles. That's what I want to find."

While also describing Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille as "interesting", Trezeguet insists he would be able to come to a financial agreement.
