Manchester United look to have won the race to sign American youngster Will Vint despite his father being the academy director at Everton.

The 15-year-old dropped a big hint about his future on Instagram, it was reported on Tuesday. According to The Sun (h/t Colin Harvey of the Daily Star) the youngster changed his Instagram bio to "footballer at Manchester United," although this has since been removed.

It had recently been reported by Simon Jones of the MailOnline that United were looking to land the teenager, who was previously part of the US Soccer Development Academy with Real Colorado, and discussions have been held about a potential deal.
