Manchester United's out-of-favour midfielder Anderson is set to join Lyon on loan and it could involve a swap deal with French international keeper Hugo Lloris.
Anderson was fined £80,000 this week for returning to Brazil without informing United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
The 21-year-old hopes to now resurrect his career in France and Lyon is his first port of call according to the Daily Mirror after falling out of favour with boss Alex Ferguson.
A spokesman for Anderson's agent said: 'We are working towards some authorisation with United. The subject could be closed this weekend.'
