Manchester United and Liverpool set to battle for French Under-17 striker
Odsonne Edouard is reportedly a target for Manchester United
MANCHESTER UNITED are planning to make a move for Paris Saint-Germain academy player Odsonne Edouard, according to reports.
 
Clubcall claim United will attempt to sign the 17-year-old if he rejects a new deal with the French club.
Edouard was the top scorer at this summer’s European Under-17 Championship and scored a magnificent hat-trick for France in the final versus Germany.
Louis van Gaal's team scouted Edouard during his club's 5-2 win against Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Youth League in midweek.
 
United are expected to face competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool for the signature of the Frenchman.
Edouard has been at PSG since 2011, but he is yet to make a first team appearance for the club.
He could follow in the footsteps of 19-year-old Anthony Martial, who has made a massive impact at Old Trafford since joining from Monaco in the summer.
