Former Rangers academy star Malcolm Ebiowei is on the verge of a money–spinning transfer to the English Premier League.
The 18-year-old – who spent 18 months within the Ibrox academy – was signed by Derby County last summer.
And the multiple restrictions at Pride Park offered Ebiowei the chance to flourish as he made the most of 16 appearances he made last season.
The Daily Mail report Manchester United are keen but Newcastle, Crystal Palace and Tottenham are also in the mix to secure his services.
The forward scored once under Wayne Rooney's tutelage but it was his all round game that turned heads at Pride Park.
It's a remarkable rise for the former Arsenal starlet as he gets sets to choose between a host of Premier League big guns.
Ebiowei's stint with Rangers was brief but he lavished praise on former boss Steven Gerrard when signing with the Ibrox side.
Speaking in 2020, he said: "“I’m delighted to have signed for this great club
“I know it’s very big and happy to see what the future holds. The fanbase and the fans (attracted me). I’ve heard it is one of the biggest clubs and I’ve seen the fans on multiple videos. I love it.
“I’ve seen that Steven Gerrard likes to bring up the youths if they work hard and I’d like to take that chance.”
