Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are among the clubs that have scouted the Ligue 1 teenager

It was so suprisong to know that Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are among the clubs that have scouted the Ligue 1 teenager.

The Reds would enter the top four with a win over the Eagles, although Tottenham Hotspur could move back into fourth place with a win over Nottingham Forest later in the day.
The current season has been difficult for the Reds but Jurgen Klopp’s side have improved in recent weeks.

Last time out, they beat rivals Manchester United 7-0 at Anfield, ending the Red Devils’ short-lived title challenge.
Now it looks like the two teams could face off off the pitch. According to 90min, Liverpool and United have scouted Lille teenager Carlos Baleba.

The 19-year-old only joined Lille in January last year but he made an immediate impression in the French top flight and Arsenal and Newcastle United have also reportedly scouted the player.

Central midfielder Baleba made his debut for Lille in a 4-1 win over AJ Auxerre on matchday one of the current season.
Baleba has been scouted by several teams across Europe, including Arsenal and Manchester United.

The youngster has now made 14 professional appearances for his current side but is attracting interest from a number of other clubs.

Italian giants Juventus and French counterparts Nice and Monaco have all reportedly shown interest in the midfielder, while AC Milan have reportedly tried unsuccessfully to sign the player in the January window. West Ham United and Leicester have also sent scouts to keep tabs on Baleba, who is expected to attract great interest when the window reopens this summer.

The player is signed with his current side until 2026, putting very little pressure on Lille to sell the teenage sensation, although they may decide to cash in this summer after an already impressive breakthrough campaign.
If they decide to let Baleba go, Lille would demand around £30m for the midfielder.
