Aberdeen boss Jim Goodwin is hopeful the Scottish Premiership side will be able to fend off interest from Leeds United and a number of other Premier League clubs to keep teenage talent Lewis Pirie at the club. The Dons striker is reportedly a target for the Whites, Fulham, Everton and Brighton after an impressive number of displays in their youth set-up.
The 15-year-old's stock rose even higher after netting for Scotland U16s in a 3-2 Victory Shield defeat to Wales earlier this week. Chiefs at Aberdeen are desperate for the young talent to sign a professional contract with the club when he turns 16 next month.
Speaking to the Press and Journal, Goodwin said: “Young Lewis is a player that I really like. I had a conversation with him recently as we were short of numbers on the Friday and brought him over to train with the first team.
