Manchester City and Manchester United are in the picture to sign FC Copenhagen young star Amin Chiakha, according to Tipsbladet.

The 18-year-old joined the Danish club’s youth system from Sundby BK in 2017 and has been part of their U19 side since March 2023.

Chiakha has excelled for Copenhagen U19 this season, scoring 24 goals and registering three assists, including eight goals and two assists from nine UEFA Youth League matches.

This has caught the attention of several European clubs, including Manchester City and Manchester United.

Ajax and Juventus were earlier credited with interest, and after relaying this, the report claims both Manchester City and Manchester United are following the ‘hot striker’.

The Denmark U19 international is also being chased by clubs in Germany, the Netherlands and France, but the report hasn’t provided the names of these teams.

Earlier in the season, Chiakha faced Manchester United twice in the UEFA Youth League, scoring the late equaliser in the 2-2 draw in Denmark.

Tipsbladet say the teenager is one of the ‘great talents’ at Copenhagen, and amid interest from several clubs, they ‘will do their best’ to retain him.
