Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that at least three Premier League clubs will monitor highly-rated Golden Eaglets attacking midfielder Akinkunmi Amoo at the 2019 FIFA U17 World Cup.

Amoo's adviser Oliver Noah has opened talks with Manchester City, Arsenal and Watford over the possibility of signing the player who has drawn comparisons with Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi and is regarded as one of the top stars in the Golden Eaglets set-up.

Representatives from the three English clubs will run the rule over the Sidos Academy wonderkid in Brazil before making a final decision whether or not to sign him.

French agent Noah, who used to represent Watford's Isaac Success, has close links with Udinese, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, and the Serie A and Ligue 1 clubs will watch the teenager in action at the World Cup.

Ajax Amsterdam are also tracking the midfielder; the injury he suffered at the U17 African Cup of Nations in Tanzanian prevented the Dutch powerhouse from thrashing out a preliminary contract with his minders.

Amoo was the second top scorer at the WAFU-UFOA B qualifiers with three goals and found the net against Tanzania during the U17 AFCON.
