Details: According to sports outlet britball.net, the young American’s confident and mature performances in La Liga have sparked a major frenzy among clubs from across the English Channel. The scouting departments of all three giants have already begun gathering detailed information and are preparing opening offers in an attempt to beat their rivals to the highly promising defender.
Interest in the defender has intensified following high-profile comments from United States head coach Mauricio Pochettino, who described the footballer as a player capable of eventually becoming the best in the world in his position.
