Doukoure has featured in 15 games across all competitions for Valenciennes, and his performances at the back appear to have caught the eyes of the aforementioned trio.
His pace, aerial threat and ball-playing abilities have set him apart from his peers, and he will be playing in the English or French top-flight sooner rather than later if he continues developing at this rate.
