Arsenal are keeping an eye on MK Dons youngster Dylan Asonganyi, according to the Mirror.

The newspaper reports that the Gunners will have to fight off Manchester United, Liverpool and West Ham United if they want to sign the 16 year old. The striker has not yet made his debut in senior football but his performances for the MK Dons’ under 18 side have been very impressive.

Asonganyi has scored nine times in seven appearances this season, and his displays could see him promoted to the League One club’s first team squad to make his senior debut before long.

Inevitably there are parallels with another notable MK Dons academy product, Dele Alli. The England international made his debut as a 16 year old, and Asonganyi could be in line for a potential first team start before he turns 17 in a few months time. The forward looks to have a number of potential options in the Premier League though if he chooses to leave the Stadium:MK.
