Aston Villa are looking to sign Maxime Lopez from Marseille at the end of this season.
As per Estadio Deportivo (translated by Sportwitness), West Ham are keen on the player as well.
Both clubs are prepared to splash out on the player and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Lopez has a contract until 2021 and therefore his suitors will be able to sign him for a reasonable fee this summer.
The Frenchman is a technically gifted central midfielder who would be a good addition to both sides.
