Claude Paris/Associated Press

Manchester United have reportedly upped their interest in AS Monaco duo Kylian Mbappe and Tiemoue Bakayoko by sending top scout Marcel Bout to watch them in Wednesday's UEFA Champions League match with Manchester City.

That's according to Jeremy Cross of the Daily Star, with Bout watching both players find the net in Monaco's 3-1 win over City, which took them to the quarter-finals of the competition on away goals with a 6-6 aggregate score.

The pair have played key roles in helping Monaco top Ligue 1 this season as well as progress in Europe.
