Leicester City, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton have all been credited with interest in the Burnley star.
Linked clubs Leicester City, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton may have to pay more than first claimed for the Burnley winger, Dwight McNeil.
Teamtalk claimed that Leicester, Wolves and Everton are all chasing McNeil – who is valued by Burnley at £30 million – and are ready to test the Clarets’ resolve in the January transfer window.
But according to The Sun, Burnley are in fact looking for around £35m – and have another suitor to worry about in the shape of McNeil’s former club Manchester United.
United released the teenager – who has scored or assisted four goals in 11 Premier League games this season – over a perceived lack of set-piece-taking ability more than five years ago.
But the Red Devils’ scouts are said to have watched McNeil – who remains a fan of the fallen giants – on a number of occasions.
It is claimed that Burnley would be reluctant to sell the England Under-21 international, although denying him a chance to play for a club like Leicester – who are chasing Champions League football next season – or Manchester United, in particular, could be hard to justify.
Fans of Leicester, Wolves, Everton and Manchester United – is McNeil worth spending £35m on?
