Andersen has been on loan at Fulham since last summer and has impressed with his performances despite the west London side’s predicament.
The Dane is scheduled to return to Lyon at the end of the season, but Juninho, the club’s sporting director, recently claimed that the defender might want to continue in the Premier League.
It has been claimed that he is attracting interest from Tottenham ahead of the summer transfer window.
The north London club are keeping a close eye on the player and he is one of the defenders they are considering.
Tottenham are prioritising bringing in a defensive leader but they also want the player to have Premier League experience if possible.
Andersen’s performances have caught the eye and the fact that Scott Parker has even handed him the captain’s armband in several games has been noted as well.
Fulham do not have an option to buy him but are expected to rival Tottenham for his signature if they survive in the Premier League.
Andersen has more than three years left to run on his contract with Lyon and the French club are expected to want a considerable fee following his season in the Premier League.
