Manchester United are reportedly lining up a €60m (£51m) offer for Inter Milan defender Yann Bisseck, with the Red Devils said to have identified him as the ideal signing during this summer's transfer window.
The 24-year-old started his professional career with FC Koln, but he only made three appearances for the German club, having five separate loan spells during his time with the Cologne outfit.
Bisseck's form for AGF in Denmark, who he joined on a permanent basis in 2022 after a successful loan spell, led to Inter signing him in 2023, and he has impressed during his time with the Italian giants.
The Germany international has made 57 appearances for Inter, scoring four goals and registering five assists in the process, including two goals and three assists in 36 outings during the 2024-25 campaign.
According to Fichajes, Man United are huge admirers of Bisseck, and the Red Devils are said to be preparing a €60m (£51m) offer for the 6ft 5in centre-back.

Man United 'keen on summer deal for Bisseck'
Bisseck came off the bench in both legs of Inter's Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich, helping the Italian giants to reach the semi-finals of the competition against Barcelona.
The defender has played the full 90 minutes in Inter's last two Serie A games, meanwhile, and he was on the scoresheet in the team's 3-1 success over Cagliari last time out.
Bisseck has a contract at San Siro until June 2029, having penned an extension in November 2024, meaning that Inter are in an excellent position when it comes to any potential negotiations.
However, it is understood that an offer of €60m (£51m) would be seriously considered by the Black and Blues, who are currently top of the Serie A table, level on points with second-placed Napoli.

Do Man United need another centre-back?
Man United are well-covered in the centre-back spots, with Leny Yoro, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs de Ligt and Ayden Heaven among the options for head coach Ruben Amorim.
Luke Shaw is also now back from injury and an option for the left-sided role in the back three, while Noussair Mazraoui is currently being used as a centre-back, with his best performances coming in that area of the field.
There will be two centre-back exits this summer, though, with Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans both out of contract at the end of June, while Martinez is likely to be out for the rest of the year with his knee injury.
As a result, there is expected to be space for a centre-back arrival this summer, but the Red Devils have more pressing issues, and addressing their problems in the final third of the field should certainly come before any additions at the back.
