Ligue 1 side Nice are expected to lower their asking price for Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea target Jean-Michael Seri.
The 26-year-old Ivory Coast international came close to leaving Nice last summer, but his proposed move to Barcelona fell through during the final few days of the window.
However, ahead of next month, Seri's future has come under scrutiny again and a number of clubs in the Premier League are trying to snap him up.
It has been claimed that Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea are all keeping close tabs on his situation and are considering January moves for the in-demand midfielder.
