Real Sociedad's Robin Le Normand is being chased by Man Utd and Liverpool

He made the move to Real Sociedad in 2016 and helped them to Copa del Rey success three years later.

Last season he helped the club to a fourth place finish in LaLiga and his displays were soon rewarded on the international stage.

He made his debut for Spain earlier this year and was part of the squad that lifted the Uefa Nations League trophy during the summer.

Le Normand has continued his impressive form this term both domestically and in the Champions League, starting all three of his team's group matches.

Now TEAMtalk claims that United and Liverpool are both plotting a swoop for him at the end of the campaign.

They claim that the Premier League teams are both "looking at defensive reinforcements" with scouts deployed around the globe looking to unearth a gem.

This report states talent spotters from each respective club "have taken note of Le Normand and they like what they have seen" from the ace.

Le Normand, who turns 27 next month, signed a new contract at San Sebastian during the summer.
