Manchester United and Tottenham are battling for Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo.
The Manchester Evening News says United and Spurs are chasing Todibo's signature ahead of the January market.
OGCN are seeking an initial 60m to sell the France international.
United have the edge on all rivals for Todibo with Nice owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who is about to buy a 25 per cent stake in the Premier League giants.
A new centre-half is a priority position to be strengthened by United manager Erik ten Hag.
