Olympique Marseille president Pablo Longoria is aiming to sign Manchester United defender Eric Bailly for a cut-price fee.
The Ivory Coast international has been available from United this summer.
La Provence says OM are in talks with United over a fee for Bailly.
United have been seeking at least €10m to sell the former Villarreal stopper.
However, Longoria is confident signing Bailly for closer to €6-7m.
