Motherwell boss Steven Hammell has revealed top clubs in England and Scotland have been chasing teenage talent Lennon Miller for years - but insists he is not aware of Newcastle United trying to prise away the 16-year-old.
The midfielder, from Wishaw, became Motherwell's youngest ever player on August 31 when he came on in a 4-0 Premier Sports Cup quarter-final win over Inverness and reports this week have linked the Magpies with a potential swoop.
There are high hopes for the Scotland youth international - who once scored from the halfway line against England for the under-16s at the age of 14 - and Hammell is not surprised to hear clubs may be interested in the son of former Aberdeen striker Lee Miller because clubs have already tried to lure Lennon away.
