Renault team principal Frederic Vasseur has confirmed that Renault are interested in signing Nico Hulkenberg.

The Anglo-French team has been linked with a number of drivers, including Hulkenberg's Force India team mate Sergio Perez, who has since confirmed he is staying at Force India.

"He is one of the possibilities, but at the moment we have not decided," team boss Frederic Vasseur told the French broadcaster Canal Plus. "If we were to put all of the drivers in the team who have been linked with us, we would call ourselves a football team rather than a formula one team."

"Hulkenberg is a possibility, as are two or three other drivers," he added.

Meanwhile, Force India's deputy team principal Bob Fernley has admitted that the team would not stand in Hulkenberg's way if he wanted to leave the team.

"We would not stop Nico if he would like to go somewhere else," deputy boss Bob Fernley is quoted by Finland's Turun Sanomat.
