Liverpool, Leeds and Brighton go for Motherwell teen Sam Campbell

Motherwell's highly-rated teenage defender Sam Campbell is attracting big Premier League interest.

PA Sport says Liverpool, Leeds and Brighton are battling to sign Campbell, with the trio having had bids accepted for the 16-year-old.

Campbell is yet to decide on the move with all three Premier League clubs trying to persuade him to join them.

Crystal Palace are also monitoring the situation but the Eagles are yet to agree any deal with Motherwell.

He may remain in Scotland with Well keen to keep him and the Fir Park club have offered him a three-year deal to stay. They are likely to be able to offer Campbell a quicker route to first-team football but face a battle to keep him from the English top flight.
