According to RMC, reported Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United target Serhou Guirassy is keen to join French side Rennes this summer.
The Amiens striker has been heavily linked with a move this summer.
Premier League side Tottenham are cited as strong suitors. According to Le10sport, Spurs have enquired about the striker with Amiens seeking £17.5 million.
Fellow London side West Ham have apparently gone one step further. L’Equipe say the Hammers have launched several lower bids for the striker with Amiens holding out.
But the English duo now appear in danger of missing out on Guirassy.
The latest reports from RMC say Rennes have stepped up their efforts. Moreover, the striker favours a move to the club who have Champions League football to offer.
The French top-flight ended early due to Covid-19. Rennes, rather surprisingly, were sitting in third spot at the time, one point clear of fourth-placed Lille.
Amiens, meanwhile, were in 19th spot and face the possibility of relegation.
Guirassy, who scored nine league goals this term, represents a potential bargain this summer but teams will have to move quickly to secure his signature.
Tottenham must find an alternative to Karry Kane. Spurs scored just five goals in their last six games in all competitions before the suspension.
West Ham, on the other hand, have struggled to get the most out of striker Sebastien Haller. The Hammers are in relegation trouble and will need to secure their top-flight status before planning for next season.
