Leeds United are odds-on favourites to sign Morocco World Cup star Azzedine Ounahi from Ligue 1 strugglers Angers this month.
According to SkyBet, Leeds are leading the race for Ounahi, with odds of 4/5 for Jesse Marsch's side to land the Angers midfielder.
Serie A leaders Napoli launched a €15 million bid for the 22-year-old last week, but reports in Italy suggest that the Serie A leaders are unwilling to enter a bidding war.

The Whites have already signed two players this month, with the arrivals of Max Wober and Georginio Rutter from Red Bull Salzburg and Hoffenheim respectively.
Ounahi played a key role in helping Morocco become the first ever African nation in history to reach the World Cup semi-finals in Qatar. His exploits at the 2022 World Cup appears to have increased his value, while his recent absence from Angers' squad has fuelled the rumours surrounding his future.
The midfielder, who is contracted to Angers until 2026, returned to action for his current employers as a second-half substitute in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Clermont Foot.
He had been absent from the squad for their previous four games, while Angers are on a wretched run of 11 straight league defeats.
Ounahi next club odds (Sky Bet):
Leeds 4/5
Napoli 4/1
PSG 4/1
Leicester 10/1
Arsenal 25/1
