Olympique Marseille chief Andoni Zubizarreta is chasing a deal for Liverpool defender Alberto Moreno.
Off contract in June, the Spanish defender is expected to leave next summer, with former club Sevilla keen on a reunion. Arsenal boss Unai Emery is also watching developments
L'Equipe says Zubizarreta is interested in Moreno and has made his signing a priority.
OM's Spanish football director is weighing up whether to move for the left-back in January or to wait until the summer to take him on a Bosman.
For his part, Moreno has no preference over the country of his next move.
