Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham and German giants Bayern Munich are all reportedly interested in Middlesbrough defender Djed Spence.
However, it’s the on-loan Nottingham Forest man’s ‘dream’ to play for Manchester United, who are also said to be monitoring him.
That’s according to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, who says that Boro could be willing to sell him for £10-12.5million (€12-15m).
The 21-year-old has been in fantastic form for Forest this season under former England Under-17 boss Steve Cooper, scoring two goals and providing five assists.
Forest are currently fourth in the Championship and are just five points adrift of an automatic promotion spot with four games left to play.
They may have been keen to keep hold of Spence if they win promotion but, with some of the biggest clubs in the world sniffing around the youngster, that now seems highly unlikely.
Both north London clubs and Manchester clubs could make moves for the flying wing-back this summer, who was named in the Championship Team of the Season.
But United may have the advantage when it comes down to agreeing on terms with the player, with Spence apparently a Red Devils supporter.
And Bayern could be eyeing their second English full-back signing in two years, after they signed former Reading defender Omar Richards last summer.
Middlesbrough, who look set to narrowly miss out on the Championship players this season, are clearly happy to cash in on a player who hasn’t even been a part of their squad this year.
They also have their own talented youngster – Isaiah Jones – who plays in a similar position to Spence and is someone Chris Wilder will hope they can keep hold of.
