Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly close to signing Manchester United's young forward James Wilson on loan.

The 19-year-old striker made 17 first-team appearances for United last term after boss Louis van Gaal took a shine to him.

With the Red Devils set to complete a €36 million move for Monaco forward Anthony Martial, the Daily Mail claim Wilson will be allowed to move on loan to White Hart Lane for the season.

It is understood as many as 15 clubs are interested in the teenage prodigy, who scored twice in just four starts last season.
