French side Rennes are back in the hunt for talented Real Valladolid defender Mohammed Salisu, RMC reports.
The French outfit were in a serious hunt for the services of the 20-year-old, but pulled out over the cost of the deal.
But Rennes have turned their attention back on the centre-back following difficulty in signing Jhon Lucumi from Belgian side Genk.
The French side have reignited their interest in the Southampton target this summer.
Salisu has a â¬12m release clause, meaning must dig deep to meet his valuation.
