According to a report in the British tabloid
The Daily
Mail, Chelsea are
planning to persuade Manchester United
youngster Kenji Gorre to swap Old Trafford for Stamford
Bridge.
Apparently, the Blues' sporting director Frank Arnesen is hoping to
convince the 15-year-old, who is believed to be highly rated by the
Red Devils, to join the west London club.
It is thought that Chelsea are beginning to focus more attention on
their youth academy having failed to produce anywhere near the same
number of home-grown talents as the European Champions in recent
years.
Kenji, who has dual nationality because his father, current
Southampton assistant manager Dean Gorre, is a Dutch citizen, has
recently won a place in the England youth teams.
