Manchester United-linked Nigerian winger attracting interest from Monaco, Vitesse

Italian transfer market guru Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Manchester United are monitoring the situation of Nigerian winger Malcolm Ebiowei ahead of a possible move this summer. 

New Manchester United assistant coach Steve McClaren knows all about the qualities of the winger as the former England manager was a senior advisor at Derby County before his recent appointment.

Ebiowei, who was named in Nigeria's provisional squad for the 2019 Fifa U17 World Cup, has emerged as a transfer target for several Premier League teams following a breakout season with the Rams under the tutelage of legendary Red Devils striker Wayne Rooney. 

Having put himself in the shop window, his time at the Pride Park Stadium looks to be over, with his contract expiring on June 30, 2022.

Ebiowei's displays last season have not gone unnoticed by Crystal Palace, while French Ligue 1 club Monaco and Eredivisie side Vitesse are also interested.

The 18-year-old has a Dutch passport and has played non-binding games for the Netherlands U15 national team in the past.

Ebiowei previously represented the youth teams of Chelsea, Arsenal and Glasgow Rangers.
