MANCHESTER UNITED have joined the race to sign Celtic prospect Vincent Angelini, according to reports.
The 17-year-old stopper is out of contract at the end of the season and talks over a new deal have stalled.
Angelini, who has an Italian father, is not short of suitors keen to land him for nothing.
According to Tutto Mercato Web, United are joined by Premier League rivals Everton and Southampton who are in the market for his signature.
But their biggest threat comes from abroad with clubs in Italy also locked in a transfer tug-of-war.
Lazio, Atalanta and AC Milan are ready to make their move and Angelini is reportedly keen on testing his abilities in Italy.
Angelini’s potential was realised at the Marc Overmars Tournament in 2017 where he was voted the Best Goalkeeper at the youth competition.
Celtic have reluctantly lost their big talents in recent windows with Liam Morrison and Josh Adam heading to Bayern Munich and Man City respectively.
Fellow team-mate Karamoko Dembele is also being linked with a move away from Celtic with Borussia Dortmund interested.
Meanwhile their US starlet Cameron Harper has been tipped for a move to the MLS.
