Sunderland are bracing themselves for a bid from Manchester United for Jordan Pickford.

The Evening Chronicle says United and Tottenham are keen on the 22-year-old, who made his Black Cats debut in January.

United have had scouts at the Toulon Tournament and have been keeping tabs on Pickford.

The keeper impressed as England's Under-21s won the tournament for the first time since 1994.

Jose Mourinho's arrival at Old Trafford is reportedly not set to wreck United's interest in Pickford.

The Sunderland academy graduate is under contract at the Stadium of Light until 2020 after penning a new deal in January.
