Scouts from both Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur were said to have watched Charlton Athletic midfielder Diego Poyet in action against Bournemouth last night.
The 18-year-old, who is the son of Sunderland manager Gus, has earned a host of plaudits for his performances in the Championship this season.
With his contract due to expire in the summer, Poyet could switch clubs for around £400,000 compensation, according to the London Evening Standard.
The report added that representatives from West Ham United and Fulham were also at The Valley.
