Sporting CP are in talks with Lyon manager Paulo Fonseca over a potential move to replace current head coach Rui Borges, according to Get French Football News.
The Portuguese club is considering dismissing Borges after a run of poor results and has approached Fonseca, who is currently in charge of the French Ligue 1 side.
Discussions are at an early stage, and no formal agreement has been reached. Fonseca, a Portuguese native, has previously managed clubs in Italy and France.
Lyon have not yet responded publicly to the approach for their manager.
