Manchester United are reportedly leading the chase for Preston North End youngster Josh Brownhill.
The 17-year-old attacking midfielder, who is a former United schoolboy, has impressed since making his first-team debut in October, but has not yet signed professional terms at Deepdale.
According to talkSPORT, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton and Fulham are also showing interest in the teenager, although the Lilywhites are hopeful of tying him to a permanent contract.
Brownhill's performances for North End have led to comparisons with Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey.
