It is suggested that Sevilla would not be willing to accept offers below €25m.
Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli would be willing to satisfy Sevilla financially, but it is unclear if Bounou would favour that move.
Bounou, who still has two years left on his current contract, featured in 36 games for Sevilla this season, managing seven clean sheets.
