Olympique Marseille and AS Monaco are interested in signing Manchester United defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah. 

The Dutch-born Ghanaian center back is attracting interest from the French giants after reportedly failing to agree to a contract extension with the Red Devils.

Fosu-Mensah who turned 23 today has six months left on his current deal with the English giants, and can in principle begin talks with another club.

The £5 million rated defender is seen as a potential replacement for the 30-year-old Haroki Sakai at Olympique Marseille.

Meanwhile, AS Monaco are in the market for a defender to strengthen their back with the Dutch youth international seen as the preferred candidate.

Fosu-Mensah is also attracting interest from German Bundesliga outfit Hertha Berlin.
