Manchester United have withdrawn their interest in Wigan Athletic's Mohamed Diame due to concerns over the player's health, the Daily Mail reports.
The midfielder, who joined the Latics for £3m in 2009, has a heart condition and keeps a defibrillator near to the touchline during games.
United are keen to sign a new midfielder before the start of the new campaign, with Paul Pogba on the verge of a move to Italian giants Juventus.
However, the Premier League runners-up are on the brink of signing Borussia Dortmund's Shinji Kagawa in a deal worth £7m.
Diame is out of contract at the DW Stadium this summer, and has also attracted the interest of Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and Everton.
