Arsenal are among the teams looking at Valencia midfielder Ferhat Cogalan, according to Tuttomercatoweb.
Looking newspaper Superdeporte says that AC Milan are the team leading the race for the 15 year old but the Italian website report that the Gunners, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also watching the player with interest.
The Turkish youth international has yet to sign a professional contract, and although Valencia have inserted a buyout fee, worth over a million euros, it won’t come into effect until Cogalan turns 16 when he can legally become a professional player.
It means any club can talk with Cogalan’s representatives and negotiate their own professional contract with the midfielder. According to Transfermarkt, the Turkish starlet will turn 16 on the 30th November so any team have three months to persuade the player to move to their club before he becomes officially contracted to Valencia, and a transfer fee will then be required.
