Olympique Marseille are confident of fighting off major Premier League interest to keep hold of Bernard Mendy.

Le Sport 10 says Manchester United and Manchester City are chasing the French youngster ahead of the summer market.

But Mendy, who is tied to OM until 2017, is in talks over a new two-year contract extension.

The left-sided midfielder is also admired by Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, but appears set to commit his immediate future to OM before the end of the month.
