According to reports United have a sent scout to the Uefa U16 development tournament to watch Demark U16 international Jacob Ambaek take part.
The Manchester club are said to have a keen eye on the 15-year-old who plays centre-forward for his country’s youth set-up.
Ambaek plays his club football for Danish side Brondby where he has represented both the U17s and the U19s, but is yet to make a professional debut.
It’s not just Man Utd that are keeping tabs on the teenager either with European giants Roma also rumoured to be interested in Ambaek.
According to Danish outlet Tipsbladet (via 3point.dk), Ambaek has been courted by Roma and even invited to train with their youth side to allow the Italians to have a proper look at his talents.
The goal-scoring teen has just over a year remaining on his contract at Brondby with his current deal set to expire in 2025.
Stats suggest that the Ambaek has an impressive record of 21 goals in just 13 league games for Brondby U17s this season.
Man Utd have already invested heavily in the future of Danish football when they dropped £72m on Rasmus Hojlund this summer.
