Sporting Lisbon ace Miguel Veloso is set for a Premiership move in January.

Veloso's representative Paulo Barbosa has revealed Manchester United and Arsenal are both scouting the player, who was also a Tottenham target this summer.

The versatile Portugal international, 22, can play as a defensive midfielder, centre-half or left-back.

Barbosa said: "Arsenal are looking at Veloso for the future and it's possible a deal can be done for January. We will also know then what will happen with Manchester United.

"Arsenal and United are both always watching Veloso and making observations. He would cost either club at least 20million euros."
