Manchester United outcast Andreas Pereira has reportedly emerged as a January transfer target for Premier League rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.
The Brazil international has been restricted to a couple of top-flight starts under Jose Mourinho and has featured just three times in all competitions since August.
Pereira is due to be out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of the campaign, though United have the option to extend that by a further 12 months.
According to The Mirror, there is interest from teams in the English top flight and abroad, with Arsenal and Chelsea both pondering an approach.
Gunners transfer chief Sven Mislintat is said to have picked out the 22-year-old as an ideal midfield addition, while the Blues also see plenty of potential in the player, despite Mourinho's reluctance to use him.
Monaco, Inter Milan and Valencia are the other sides supposedly keen to land Pereira's signature, the latter of whom he spent last season on loan with.
