Liverpool 'given deadline by Lyon' to sign World Cup star
Liverpool have reportedly been given a two-week deadline to complete the signing of Nabil Fekir.
The World Cup winning midfielder has long been top of the Anfield club's summer transfer wish list.
Liverpool were on the verge of completing a £53million deal for Fekir before the World Cup started.
But the move collapsed due to concerns over the 24-year-old's medical.
Liverpool completed the signing of Stoke midfielder Xherdan Sahqiri last week but are believed to retain an interest in Fekir.
And according to French newspaper L'Equipe, Lyon want his future sorted before the end of the month.
The Premier League transfer window closes 10 days later but clubs in Europe will have until August 31 to complete their business.
Fekir's future should become clearer in the coming days following the conclusion of the World Cup in Russia.

On Monday, Fekir walked through Sheremetyevo International Airport in Moscow, with his luggage in tow as the French national team start their trip back to Paris.
Strolling past a packed barrier full of fans, one screams "Liverpool!" at him.
Upon hearing the shout, Fekir turns and fires a knowing glance and smile at the supporter before carrying on towards the security section of the airport.
