Monaco are ahead of Fulham in the race to sign Chelsea defender Malang Sarr.
Marco Silva's newly promoted Premier League side are keen on the French centre half to strengthen their backline.
But Ligue 1 club Monaco are pushing hardest for his signature after selling defender Strahinja Pavlovic to Red Bull Salzburg.
After moving from Nice to Chelsea on a free transfer in August 2020, Sarr spent the season before last on loan at Porto, where he made 19 appearances in all competitions, including three in the Champions League.
