Transfer News: Manchester City and Manchester United leading the race to sign Belgian starlet Eliot Matazo

Belgian teen sensation Eliot Matazo is wanted by both Manchester United and Manchester City, according to reports.

The 16-year-old is expected to leave Anderlecht in the summer and will not agree a professional contract with the Belgian giants.

Belgian publication Voetbal Belgie claims the teenager has turned down a proposal from Anderlecht and plans to leave in the summer when his youth contract expires.

However, there is expected to be a worldwide scramble for the youngster’s signature.

The report also claims Bundesliga quartet Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Red Bull Leipzig and Schalke are all interested in signing Matazo on a free transfer.
