Sporting Portugal have opened talks to bring back Paulo Fonseca, the coach of Olympique Lyonnais, according to L'Équipe. For a week, the Portuguese club has been in contact with the coach's agent and with Lyon itself.

All three parties are open to Fonseca leaving the French side to return to his childhood club. For now, though, nothing has been agreed or signed.
