Plymouth teenager Matt Lecointe is set to become the next big Premier League target - and give his hard-up club a cash lifeline.

Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are all in for the 16-year-old right winger who has made ten appearances already despite his young age.

Lecointe has been attracting a host of top flight scouts and all of the clubs are likely to begin a battle to snap him up as quickly as possible.

Plymouth-born Lecointe has been compared to Arsenal sensation Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain because of his style and age.

Lecointe would also command a fee likely to help Argyle who have been battling to stay in business as they look to complete a takeover having already had various Football League transfer embargoes placed on the club.

Unfortunate last name that.

Chamberlain is only 18 but there's already a "new" version of him Gotta love the creativity of the press.

Exactly what i thought Diego.

What a joke.

Jesus, the kid is 16 and played a couple of games in a struggling team and he's being toutes around already. Mind you with Peter Risdale around it's hardly surprising.
