Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea have reportedly set their sights on Genoa full-back Mario Sampirisi.
The Premier League trio are all believed to have sent their respective scouts to watch the 19-year-old play against AC Milan at the weekend, according to the Daily Mail.
The teenager began his career at Milan and has experience playing in a wide position but later perfected a more defensive role.
Sampirisi made his league debut for Genoa against Palermo in January.
