Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo is attracting Premier League interest.
Manchester United and Newcastle United are watching the former Barcelona stopper.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports both clubs had scouts posted to see the 23-year-old in last Saturday's 2-1 home Ligue 1 win over Rennes.
Todibo has established himself as among the best performing centre-halves in Ligue Une after a difficult spell with Barca.
He has also spent time on-loan with Schalke and Benfica.
