Everton and West Bromwich Albion are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United's out-of-favour midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin.
The 27-year-old, who moved to Old Trafford for £24m in July 2015, has featured just three times in the Premier League under Jose Mourinho this season, all as a late substitute.
Mourinho is believed to be open to the sale of the France international in the January transfer window as he plans a massive mid-season overhaul of his squad.
According to The Telegraph, both Everton and West Brom are in the hunt for a defensive midfielder next month and will fight it out for Schneiderlin's signature at a cost of around £20m.
Schneiderlin is well known to Toffees boss Ronald Koeman from their time together at Southampton and will be a cheaper option than £25m-rated Sevilla midfielder Steven Nzonzi.
The Baggies, meanwhile, are thought to have at least £21m to spend after they opted against signing William Carvalho from Sporting Lisbon on the final day of the summer transfer window.
