Report: Crystal Palace leading Manchester City and Leeds United in the race for Kingstonian winger Samuel Oguntayo

According to The Sun, Crystal Palace are leading Manchester City and Leeds United in the race for Kingstonian winger Samuel Oguntayo.

The 17-year-old is also attracting interests from Watford after impressing for the semi-professional side, but the Eagles looked to have stolen a march on their rivals.

Palace and Man. City both had scouts watching Oguntayo in action for Kingstonian in their 4-2 defeat to Cheshunt on Wednesday, but the 17-year-old has now accepted an offer to train with the Eagles’ under-23s next week at their Copers Cope Road base.

The teenager only made his league debut back in January, but he is already attracting Premier League and Championship sides due to his huge potential.
