Leeds United and Burnley have reportedly identified Saint-Etienne defender Harold Moukoudi as a potential signing.
With just five days remaining of the January transfer window, the Lilywhites and the Clarets are looking to boost their efforts in the Championship and Premier League respectively.
According to L'Equipe, Moukoudi is on the radar of both clubs having made an impression in Ligue 1 during the current campaign.
The 22-year-old has made a total of 11 starts in France's top flight, with a further three outings coming in the Europa League.
The report suggests that Leeds and Burnley are interested in securing a loan agreement for the Cameroon international, although Saint-Etienne would prefer a permanent deal.
West Bromwich Albion, Derby County and Stoke City are also said to be monitoring the situation.
