Manchester United are monitoring Vancouver Whitecaps prospect Alphonso Davies.

The 16-year-old winger, who was born in Liberia but is now a Canada U20 international, has been attracting clubs from across Europe with his performances for the Whitecaps and made his first-team debut in June last year.

He is a pacy left winger but can play in a number of positions across the front line and in midfield. 

Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Stoke City have also been alerted to his promise, and there could be a scramble to secure his services in the summer. 

Davies, who has signed a professional contract until 2018, scored for Whitecaps in their 2-0 CONCACAF Champions League win over New York Red Bulls last month.

United scouts will be among those watching him against Mexican side Tigres on Wednesday evening in Canada.
