Manchester United have tabled an offer of above €40 million (£35m/$45m) for Lyon striker Moussa Dembele.
The French striker who is being chased by various Premier League clubs, has had a great season in the French league, netting 23 goals in all competitions.
That has made United table a first offer worth around €40m as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks to bolster his squad.
Report have it that the Red Devils have been following Dembele since his young days at Paris Saint-Germain, with club ambassador Eric Cantona also endorsing the move for his fellow Frenchman.
Dembele is under contract at Lyon until 2021 so they are in a strong position to negotiate.
