Man Utd and Liverpool are in the race for NXGN starlet Sulemana, claims Nordsjaelland boss Pedersen

The Danish coach expects the talented teenage winger to join one of Europe's biggest clubs this summer

Manchester United and Liverpool "are in the race" to sign NXGN starlet Kamaldeen Sulemana, claims Nordsjaelland boss Flemming Pedersen.

Sulemana has emerged as one of the brightest talents outside of Europe's major leagues since starting his professional career at Nordsjaelland in 2020, attracting a number of high profile potential suitors in the process.

Pedersen says two Premier League giants are among those interested in the 19-year-old, who was included in Goal's 2021 NXGN list of the world's top teenage footballers, and he is expecting the winger to "take the next step" sooner rather than later.
