Manchester United have joined the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City in checking up on Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama.
The Gunners have reportedly scouted the player three times over the last week or so, with United watching the player in Celtic's last pre-season game.
United will again take a look at the Kenyan in the Scottish club's Champions League qualifier against Helsinki on Wednesday, with scouts from Arsenal also expected to be at the game.
Wanyama is rated at around £10 million ($15.6 million).
United striker Dimitar Berbatov is being linked with a move to Queens Park Rangers, with Mark Hughes denying he has made a bid for the Bulgarian striker.
The 31-year-old is widely expected to leave United after falling down the pecking order at Old Trafford, with former United player Mark Hughes, who is now the manager of QPR reportedly keeping an eye on developments.
With Arsenal forward Robin Van Persie also interesting United, Berbatov's future has been thrown into further doubt. A possible deal involving Berbatov going to the Emirates has also been reported in some quarters.
Sir Alex Ferguson has said the Bulgarian, who moved to United four years ago in a £30 million ($7 million) deal from Tottenham Hotspur, is available for £5 million.
Hughes, however, speaking to Sky Sports News, after his club's friendly against Wycombe, denied he was interested in the striker. "There are a lot of names flying around," Hughes said.
"That is a new one on me, in fairness.
"At this time of year, there are a lot of names flying around. But we prefer to get the job done, get the business done, and then we announce it."
QPR have gone on a major spending spree this summer after narrowly avoiding relegation last season, and certainly have the funds to bring in the classy forward, but it remains to be seen whether Berbatov will be open to a move.
Ferguson, meanwhile, has backed Javier Hernandez to get back among the goals next season. After a superb debut season, Hernandez, a.k.a. Chicharito, failed to hit the same heights in his second year with the club, but Ferguson is convinced the Mexican will regain his form soon.
"I think this season we'll see a better Chicharito," Ferguson told the club's official monthly magazine, Inside United.
"For the last four or five years he's played all through the summer. This year, with the co-operation of Mexico, he's had a proper rest. And that started right back in May when I decided not to take him to Belfast for the Harry Gregg testimonial.
"We wanted to give him as much rest as possible. He had a couple of weeks off and then joined the Mexico side for a couple of qualifying games before getting another few weeks' rest.
"That was important for him and I'm sure he'll reap the benefits. We've already seen the fruits of that in the early training sessions and I think he'll have a top season.
"He's such a good professional and such a fantastic personality. "He just loves life and loves playing football. Every training session he buzzes around the place with a big smile."
