"People talk about a possible transfer to Lyon, but bigger clubs are interested in me," Piquionne told French newspaper Le Progres about a potential move to the Ligue 1 giants.
"English clubs want me, but I have decided not to think about it."
Six goals and six assists from the 28-year-old Frenchman have helped St Etienne to third in the Ligue 1 table and put them in contention for a Champions League berth.
Piquionne, who has been heavily linked to both Lyon and Paris St Germain, said that he is not thinking about any move until after St Etienne's final league fixture of 2006.
"The most important thing is to play well against Marseille," Piquionne said of his side's visit to L'OM on Friday. "We will see the rest during the holidays."
