Metz president Bernard Serin is reportedly set to fly to the UK in order to hold talks with three Premier League clubs over teenage prospect Pape Sarr.
The 18-year-old caught the eye of top clubs across the continent during his debut season with Les Grenats, registering four goals in 25 appearances for the senior team across all competitions.
Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are all rumoured to be interested in a deal for Sarr, and Sky Sports News reporter Kaveh Solhekol claims that Serin will arrive at Stansted on Monday morning to speak with three Premier League chairmen about the teenager.
Solhekol adds that Metz would be after €40m (£34m) to part ways with Sarr - a two-cap Senegal international - who has also been linked with Real Madrid.
The former Generation Foot youngster has started both of his side's games in the 2021-22 Ligue 1 season so far, and his contract with Frederic Antonetti's side does not expire until 2025.
