Manchester United have reportedly targeted Port Vale forward Baylee Dipepa with Sir Jim Ratcliffe having placed a focus on emerging talents.
Ratcliffe revealed earlier this month that the club are set to take a different path after his Ineos group took over football operations.
Man United's minority owner had highlighted how the club had spent a lot of money over the past decade which failed to put the club back on top.
He instead set Man United the challenge of uncovering the next Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham.
