Foe is set for Lyon return

Marc-Vivien Foe looks set to see out the remaining year of his contract with French club Lyon.

Manchester City boss Kevin Keegan had hoped to tie up a permanent deal for the Cameroon midfielder, who impressed during his season-long loan stint at Maine Road and told a players’ meeting last week he would do ‘everything in his power’ to ensure Foe was still at the club next season.
