Chelsea, Atletico Madrid vying for Stoke whizkid Sankoh dubbed 'new Lukaku'

Chelsea are battling Atletico Madrid for the signature of Stoke City youngster Mohamed Sankoh.

The Dutch striker has netted nine goals and contributed nine assists for Stoke's U18 side this season.

Goal says both clubs have held talks with the 16-year-old over a move.

Sankoh's physicality has drawn comparisons to former Chelsea youth and Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku.

He joined the Potters from Sparta Rotterdam in 2018.
