Manchester United have reportedly won the race to sign Sunderland wondered Joe Hugill - and the 16-year-old’s impressive achievements show why.
The Red Devils are now close to signing the 16-year-old, beating Jose Mourinho’s new side Tottenham and Arsenal for the signature.
Spurs sent top scout Ian Broomfield to watch the 16-year-old in action before the coronavirus lockdown, and was presumably impressed with what he saw.
But United has snuck in to offer £300,000 for the young forward, who has been making himself known at a high level. The teenager earned three appearances for the Black Cats’ Premier League 2 side this season, all coming in February and March.
