Reims goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is attracting Premier League interest.
L'Equipe says Mendy is a target for Olympique Marseille, but they face stiff competition from England.
Premier League new-boys Aston Villa and Norwich City have both made formal approaches to Reims about a price for Mendy.
The Senegal international is also interesting OM coach Andre Villas-Boas as doubts over Steve Mandanda's future persist.
However, Villa and Norwich are regarded ahead of the French giants.
