Report: PL trio track 'the new Courtois'

Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea are all reportedly monitoring Anderlecht goalkeeper Mile Svilar, who has been dubbed 'the new Thibaut Courtois' in various quarters.

The 15-year-old, who is also said to be attracting interest from Spain, has already trained with Chelsea after the Blues closely monitored his performances during various youth tournaments.

However, Arsenal and Manchester United are also believed to be in the running, according to the Daily Star.

It was initially thought that the stopper would remain with Anderlecht for the next few seasons to continue his development, but Svilar's rise over the last year has accelerated interest in the youngster.
