Manchester United have joined the transfer scramble for Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.

Le 10 Sport says United boss Jose Mourinho would like to recruit the 21-year-old midfielder this summer.

Lyon are reluctant to sell the youngster, having only confirmed his signature earlier this summer following a successful loan-spell from Amiens.

OL would be open to sell if United could meet the touted €50m price-tag reportedly set by the club.

And it is claimed they have already identified Strasbourg's Jean-Eudes Aholou as his replacement.

The arrival of Ndombele could result in Ander Herrera's passage out of the club, with Athletic Bilbao said to be preparing a €30m offer.

But Ndombele is also linked with Manchester City, Tottenham and Juventus and a transfer battle could be on the cards.
