According to the Daily Mail, Manchester City are interested in signing Crystal Palace teenager Jadan Raymond, who has held talks with Leeds United.
Raymond, 16, looks set to leave Palace this summer. The central midfielder is considering a promising prospect, but seems poised to go.
The teenager is attracting major interest due to his potential, with options both at home and abroad as he prepares to leave Selhurst Park.
It’s states that Vitoria de Guimaraes have held talks to sign Raymond, in the hope of teaming him up with fellow English talent Marcus Edwards.
However, Leeds have also held talks with the youngster, and will hope to bring him to Elland Road in something of a coup.
They will have to beat major competition though, as Premier League giants City are also thought to have been monitoring him ahead of a potential move.
Joining Pep Guardiola and co would be appealing to any young player, but Raymond will have to consider first-team opportunities.
Young players have found it difficult to break through under Guardiola at City, whereas Marcelo Bielsa has given chances to his youngsters – and that may be something for Raymond to consider.
