Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City eye Lenny Pintor as Brest starlet is lined up for Premier League switch


ARSENAL, Chelsea and Manchester City are reportedly eyeing moves for French prodigy Lenny Pintor.

The 17-year-old currently plays for second-division side Brest and is a regular for France’s U17s.

Lenny impressed during the recent youth World Cup in India, with his goal against Spain a highlight.

And the winger could now be set to make the next step in his career, with the Daily Mail claiming a number of Premier League teams are chasing his signature.

Arsenal and Chelsea are said to be keeping tabs on Lenny, who is left-footed and only joined Brest on his first-ever professional contract a few months ago.

But it’s believed Manchester City are also interested and could also move for Pintor, who is yet to make a senior appearance for his new French side.

The whizkid has already been compared to compatriot and £135million Barcelona man Ousmane Dembele.

However, Pintor may feel it’s too early to move to a new country, especially after seeing Kylian Mbappe snub the likes of Real Madrid in favour of Paris Saint-Germain for that very reason.

Meanwhile, another talented teen said to be on Arsenal’s radar is Wolves left-back Ruben Vinagre.

But the Gunners face a battle to sign him, with Manchester United and Everton also reportedly keen.
