A report claims that Manchester United are confident of signing Feyenoord teenager Tahith Chong at the end of the season.

Manchester United are reportedly ahead of Chelsea and Arsenal in the race to sign 16-year-old Feyenoord striker Tahith Chong at the end of the season.

Earlier this year, the teenager claimed that Man United 'were interested' in bringing him to England, but that he had no plans to leave his current club.

According to ESPN, however, the Red Devils have struck a deal with Feyenoord and are becoming increasingly confident of signing the attacker in the summer transfer window.

Chong, who can also play in midfield, joined the Feyenoord academy at the age of ten.
