Chelsea have joined Manchester United in the race to sign Antoine Semenyo, according to a report from TeamTalk.
The teenager is on the books of Bristol City but he’s currently on loan at Newport County, where he’s seemingly making a big impression.
According to the report, The Robins will set the asking price for the 19-year-old at around £2million, and as it stands, they’ve yet to receive any bids for him.
The teenager has scored six goals and has two assists in 30 appearances for The Exiles so far this season and his performances caught the eye of Manchester United.
However, it appears that Chelsea have also been alerted to his talents, but it is not yet known if they will decide to make a move.
Chelsea’s policy of recruiting the best young players in England, and Europe, is clear for all to see, but whether they are willing to bring in a 19-year-old from League Two remains to be seen.
