Borussia Dortmund has entered the fray for one of English football's most coveted emerging talents.

Details: According to reputable British outlet TEAMtalk, Borussia Dortmund has joined Manchester United in the race to secure highly rated Leicester City midfielder Louis Page. Both European heavyweights recently dispatched scouting delegations to monitor the 18-year-old talent in competitive action as interest in his signature escalates.

Manchester United remains confident in holding pole position for the teenager's signature, having laid extensive groundwork and pursued Page aggressively during the summer transfer window. However, Borussia Dortmund has notably intensified its pursuit in recent weeks, seeking to leverage its renowned track record of developing elite British youngsters.

The 18-year-old playmaker has drawn lofty comparisons to Real Madrid superstar Jude Bellingham due to his commanding box-to-box presence, composure in possession, and mature tactical decision-making across the middle third of the pitch. With his contract at Leicester running until June 2029, any potential deal will require a substantial investment.

It is worth noting that according to Transfermarkt, the 18-year-old English midfielder's current market value stands at €4 million.
