PSV's Ibrahima Sangare is wanted by both Manchester United andChelsea.
There is a 35m release clause in Sangare's contract and he has been linked with a number of clubs.
According to a source close to the player, he wants to move to England to play in the premier league.
Three years remain on Sangare's deal with the Eredivisie club after he joined PSV from Toulouse.
PSV won the Dutch cup, finished second in the league and reached the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League last season, with the Ivorian playing 49 times in all competition.
The graphic below shows how Sangare excelled in a number of key metrics when he was a defensiveMidfielder in the 4-3 3 formation.
The sanctions placed on the club by the UK government were lifted when the Todd Boehly-led group took over the club.
The squad will need a rebuild this summer, with a number of players potentially leaving, according to the head coach.
There are doubts over the futures of N'Golo Kante and Jorginho, who only have a year left on their contracts.
In the last two seasons, N'Golo Kante has started just 45 of a possible 76 games in the English top flight.
It is no surprise that the Blues want to strengthen in that area since Kante is the only natural ball-winner in the squad.

Manchester United are also expected to be active in the transfer market this summer, with the new manager looking to improve the squad he has inherited.
The interim manager, who was replaced by Ten Hag, spoke on a number of occasions about the need to change the squad that failed to win a trophy in five years.
There is an obvious need for improvement in the middle of the field, with two of United's best players leaving for free this summer.
The only centralMidfielders currently available to Ten Hag are Scott McTominay, Fred and Donny van de Beek.
The manager knows Sangare well, having spent the past two seasons together in the Eredivisie, and he claimed an assist in the Dutch cup final.
The transfer window will open on June 10 and close at 11pm on September 1st.
