Man City, Bayern Munich among scramble for Mali U17 sensation Lassana Ndiaye

Manchester City and Bayern Munich are chasing Mali U17 sensation Lassana Ndiaye.

Ndiaye fired Mali into the U17 World Cup semifinals and has clubs from across Europe chasing his signature.

City and Bayern are keen, while he has already had trials with Borussia Monchengladbach. Ndiaye is currently tied to local academy FC Guidar.

The last club he tested with was FC Zurich, where coach Ludovic Magnin said: "He is very talented and has been very well integrated in the team.

"His qualities and especially his left foot we liked. Now he goes back for now.

"What happens then, we will see."
