Leicester City are emerging as the likeliest destination for Grimsby Town starlet Ben Grist.

The midfielder has been around the club's first team since he was 15.

Manchester United, Leicester, Chelsea, and Liverpool would all like to sign the 16-year-old.

According to the Daily Mail, Grimsby sources claim Leicester are the club with the best chance of signing Grist at present.

Clubs are pursuing British talent with even more vigour, given the changes to work permit regulations following Brexit.
