Manchester City are believed to be showing significant interest in Dutch starlet Thomas Buitink.


Reports suggest that City are closely monitoring the 15-year-old Vitesse Arnhem striker who continues to dominate youth levels of Dutch football.

Chelsea are also keen as they have been made aware of Buitink's abilities due to their close relationship with the Eredivisie outfit.

According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United and Arsenal are also set to soon cast their eye over the teenager.

Buitink, who has netted over 100 goals at youth level, has been with Vitesse since U11 grade, is now starring for the U17 side and is also a Holland youth international.
