The images are based on statements and descriptions from two witnesses
UK police investigating Madeleine McCann's disappearance have released two e-fits of a man they want to speak to as a matter of "vital importance".
They will feature in a BBC Crimewatch appeal later over her disappearance on 3 May, 2007, in Praia da Luz, Algarve.
Police said the man "may or may not be key" but had been placed in the area.
The images are based on evidence from two witnesses who saw him on the night three-year-old Madeleine, from Rothley, Leicestershire, went missing.
'Other sightings'The witnesses said the man was white, 20 to 40 years old and of medium build. He had short brown hair, was clean-shaven and of medium height, they added.
Det Ch Insp Andy Redwood, the senior Metropolitan Police investigating officer, said: "Whilst this man may or may not be the key to unlocking this investigation, tracing and speaking to him is of vital importance to us.
"We have witnesses placing him in the resort area around the time of Madeleine's disappearance.

Footage from the Crimewatch reconstruction has been released
"This is far from our only line of inquiry and there will be e-fits released of other sightings as well, who we are equally keen to trace.
"These people were seen on the day of Madeleine's disappearance and the days leading up to it."
Madeleine went missing from a holiday flat in Praia da Luz as her parents dined with friends at a nearby restaurant.
A Portuguese investigation into the case was dropped in 2008, but Scotland Yard began a review of the case in May 2011.
On Sunday the Met said the timeline and "accepted version of events" surrounding Madeleine's disappearance had significantly changed, without giving further details.
Overseas appealsA detailed reconstruction lasting close to 25 minutes and covering events leading up to and surrounding Madeleine's disappearance will also feature on Monday's Crimewatch.
Police say the appeal is based on "substantive" new material including mobile phone records.
A short clip released in advance by police shows actors playing Madeleine's parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, leaving their holiday apartment for the nearby tapas restaurant.

BBC reporter Tom Burridge: "Madeleine has been in people's prayers in Praia da Luz since the day she went missing"
They are then seen seated outdoors at a large poolside table, greeting friends as they come to join them for dinner.
Speaking about the review-turned-investigation, Det Ch Insp Redwood said detectives had been able to "make massive steps forward" by drawing together all the material gathered to date and reviewing it as a whole.
He said his team had sought to "try and draw everything back to zero... take everything back to the beginning and then reanalyse and reassess everything, accepting nothing".
He added: "Praia da Luz is a popular holiday destination for many nationalities so our requests for help need to be repeated in many different countries."
He said he would travel to the Netherlands, Germany and Ireland to seek public support there, and would repeat the appeals in Portugal - "a key country for us to trace any outstanding witnesses".
In Germany, a special edition of the crime programme Aktenzeichen XY - Ungeloest which is translated as "File XY - Unsolved", will be aired on Wednesday night and will feature an appeal for information from Mr and Mrs McCann.
'Not to blame'Det Ch Insp Redwood went on to urge anyone, including from the local community, who was in or around Praia da Luz on Thursday, 3 May 2007, to speak to police if they had not already done so.
End Quote Kate McCannWe're not the ones that have done something wrong here. It's the person who's gone into that apartment and taken a little girl away from her family"
"We still have a lot of material to investigate and much work to do," he added.
Meanwhile former Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre head Jim Gamble - who carried out a review into the case in 2010 - said the appeal offered "an opportunity for everyone to help".
"It doesn't matter that you were not in Praia da Luz - you may watch something, you may see an e-fit, you may see some other information, they may talk about telephone numbers and something will click with you," he told BBC News.
"And that you will not know unless you watch."
Mr and Mrs McCann are expected to make a live appeal from the studio during the programme.
Ahead of its broadcast, Mrs McCann said: "We're not the ones that have done something wrong here.
"It's the person who's gone into that apartment and taken a little girl away from her family."
Meanwhile Robert Murat, the first official suspect in the case but long since cleared of any involvement, told the BBC he hoped the new appeal would produce results.
"It's gone on and on and every time something new comes up, you know, it brings hope and then it seems to fade away and disappear. So I'm hoping that's not going to be the case again," he said.
The Crimewatch appeal will be shown in the UK on BBC One on Monday from 21:00 BST. It will also be broadcast in the Netherlands and Germany.
