Tottenham are regarded as the most serious suitors, with manager Thomas Frank interested in reuniting and Spurs seeking a dominant, tactically astute centre-back. Liverpool have placed Collins on a defensive shortlist with a measured approach, while Manchester United continue to monitor long-term defensive options.
