Bayer Leverkusen centre-half Odilon Kossounou is being watched by West Ham and Leicester City.
The Sun says the Ivory Coast international wants to leave the Bundesliga club.
And both Premier League teams are on his trail for next season.
Kossounou, 22, was one of the most wanted defenders around when he went to Germany from Bruges two years ago.
But he has fallen out of favour this campaign and now the commanding player has his sights on England.
