Published: May 13, 2020

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that at least five English Premier League clubs are monitoring Chelsea midfielder of Nigerian parentage Faustino Anjorin ahead of a possible swoop for his signature in future.

The England U19 star is one of the most exciting prospects at the Chelsea Academy, and has already played twice for the first team this season, against Grimsby Town in the League Cup and Everton in the Premier League.

With the professional contract signed by Anjorin in November 2018 expiring in June 2021, the Blues have offered him a new multi-year contract and everything indicates that he will commit his future to the club.

Manchester City have officially watched Anjorin the most in the 2019-2020 season, attending youth team games involving the Anglo-Nigerian teenager.

Manchester United have also scouted the highly-rated youngster tipped for big things, while Liverpool, Arsenal and Norwich City are the other Premier League clubs observing him.

German Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund are keeping close tabs on Anjorin and one of their scouts ran the rule over the versatile midfielder before the coronavirus outbreak.

He has played nonstop at Chelsea since officially joining the club at U9 level.
