Inter Milan are reportedly preparing to battle Manchester United for the signature of Bayern Munich attacker Thomas Muller during the January transfer window.
United are said to have made an initial enquiry for the 30-year-old, who has struggled to earn a starting role for the German champions in the opening months of the 2019-20 campaign.
However, according to Kicker, the Red Devils are likely to face competition for Inter, who are preparing to make a formal offer for the German when the winter window opens for business.
Alexis Sanchez's recent ankle problem is expected to see Inter enter the market for a new attacker, and Antonio Conte's side have also been linked with a move for Chelsea's Oliver Giroud.
Muller is just three appearances short of 500 for Bayern in all competitions, scoring 186 times and winning eight Bundesliga titles during his time in the first team.
The forward has only managed one goal in 12 matches for Niko Kovac's side this season, though, and there have been suggestions that the German is keen to seek pastures new in January.
