Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing 18-year-old Arsenal defensive sensation Ayden Heaven.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Ayden Heaven has left Arsenal in a spot of bother. The teenage defensive sensation has recently rejected Arsenal’s contract offer, with the situation capturing the attention of Premier League bigwigs like Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United.
Ayden Heaven is the latest highly-rated prospect to rise in prominence. The recent years have witnessed the advent of promising prodigies like Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly, with the Englishman also seeing his stock soar amid his exploits for the North London club’s age-group sides.
A native of London, Heaven began his youth career with Edmonton United and spent some time with West Ham United before joining Arsenal. However, the 18-year-old faces an uncertain future at the North London club after entering the final seven months of his contract. The situation has piqued the attention of several Premier League bigwigs, including Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United.
Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United constantly scour the market for the most promising young prospects. Chelsea’s youth recruitment has increased considerably since BlueCo took over the West London club from Roman Abramovich two years ago. Since then, several promising prodigies have arrived at Stamford Bridge.
As for Manchester United, the Red Devils have a solid track record of nurturing promising prospects and turning them into first-team stars. Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo are the latest benefactors of that outlook, with the duo becoming regulars for Manchester United
