Tottenham, Crystal Palace and Brighton are monitoring Maidstone United's 18-year-old midfielder Jack Richards.
Scouts from the three Premier League clubs, as well as Championship side Queens' Park Rangers, have observed Richards in action during the past month.
Maidstone are bracing themselves for offers on the final day of the transfer window but ideally want to keep hold of the player at least until January.
Richards is an attacking midfielder with a sharp eye for a pass and an accomplished finisher.
