Claudio Ranieri has been linked with a return to Ligue 1 for title-winners Lille after leaving Sampdoria.
The Blucerchiati had wanted to extend his contract at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, but he was not convinced by the conditions proposed to continue.
Now le10sport.com and transfer pundit Nicolò Schira suggest Ranieri is on the radar of surprise French champions LOSC.
They are looking for a new manager after Christophe Galtier announced he wanted a new experience, having beaten PSG to the Ligue 1 title.
Ranieri is no stranger to French football, as the 69-year-old worked at Monaco from 2012-14 and then FC Nantes in the 2017-18 season.
If Christophe #Galtier leaves (#Nice are in talks to sign him as new coach and offered 3-years contract), #Lille will open talks with Claudio #Ranieri. #transfers #OGC
