Manchester United have reportedly made contact with Tanguy Ndombele's representatives over a possible summer move for the Lyon midfielder.
Ndombele, one of the most sought after prospects in Europe, is the subject of interest from Manchester City.
However, as reported by Le 10 Sport, United are looking to pursue a move for the 22-year-old.
City made an offer for Ndombele last summer, while Juventus are also monitoring the France international's situation.
Ndombele has been a mainstay for Lyon this season and is capable of operating as a central midfielder or deeper in midfield.
Having commenced his senior career at Amiens, Ndombele impressed on loan at Lyon last season.
That earned him a permanent move to Bruno Genesio's side, and his stock has continued to rise.
Ndombele will have the opportunity to impress potential suitors further during Lyon's upcoming Champions League last-16 tie against Barcelona.
