10. Cameron Humphreys (Manchester City)
Newcastle United, Manchester United and Everton are all
keeping prying eyes on Manchester City wonderkid Cameron Humphreys . The
Daily Mail claims that the 16-year-old centre-back, who has impressed during Man City's pre-season tour to Australia, is interesting the Sky Blues' Premier League rivals - and that
both Man Utd and Newcastle are ready to offer the defender a contract once he turns 17 . Formerly of Oldham Athletic's academy,
Humphreys originally became frustrated with life at the Lancashire club and gave up the dream of playing professionally to return to Sunday League football - until Man City tempted him back . Having started against both Melbourne City and Real Madrid during pre-season, it is clear that Manuel Pellegrini rates Humphreys highly. Yet the Magpies, the Red Devils and the Toffees appear to believe they have a good chance of signing the centre-back once his scholar's contract at Eastlands ends, according to this article. In fact, so impressive has Humphreys' development been, he played for England's Under-17 side at the end age of just 14. Humphreys, who can also cover in at right-back, represented the Young Lions at the 2013 Nordic Tournament and captained his nation to a Victory Shield win over Scotland last November. His two-year scholarship at Man City finishes at the end of the 2015-16 campaign.
