The Frenchman only moved to United from Southampton last summer in a £24million deal.
But he failed to cement his place in the starting line-up under Louis van Gaal.
Schneiderlin has only played five minutes of Premier League football under Jose Mourinho this term, and is behind Paul Pogba, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick in the pecking order.
And now the Daily Mail claim Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino wants to bring the 26-year-old to White Hart Lane.
However, United are unwilling to let the Frenchman leave the club as they believe he is needed as cover.

Schneiderlin is being lined up an alternative to Moussa Sissoko.
