One of the hottest young properties in European football seems set for England, but two top clubs will battle it out for his signature.

Serbian under-21 international Marko Grujic has been catching the eye for Red Star Belgrade, and was part of the squad that won the Under-20 World Cup over the summer.

And now both Manchester United and Chelsea are ready to make a move for the 19-year-old.

The midfielder scored a fantastic goal in the SuperLiga leaders’ 3-0 victory over Rad Beograd in their last game, his third league goal of the season.

Grujic may be convinced to sign for Chelsea by the presence of senior Serbian internationals Branislav Ivanovic and Nemanja Matic.

However former United captain Nemanja Vidic, who began his career with Red Star, could yet convince him to choose Old Trafford.
