Real Madrid and Bayern Munich pursue 16-year-old Bundesliga star Vincent Thill
Metz youngster has been scouted by European giants ahead of potential move
REAL MADRID and Bayern Munich have sent out scouts to monitor Metz’s teenage sensation Vincent Thill.
The player’s agent, Didier Philippe, revealed the two European giants are moving closer to a potential move.
The 16-year-old has made six appearances for Luxembourg and since breaking into the international team, the likes of Madrid and Bayern have shown an interest.
His agent, Philippe, told Footmercato: “Bayern thought he was available for an interesting transfer fee, but that was not what Metz had in mind.
“The transfer did not happen for financial reasons.
“But I also think it was important for Vincent to sign his first professional deal with Metz.
“I can confirm that Real Madrid are keeping tabs on him, but I do not know if [Zinedine] Zidane personally called him.
“But Madrid and Bayern are not the only teams that have shown an interest in him. There are other big teams as well. You do not see a 16-year-old play in Ligue 1 every day.
“He is an extraordinary talent, with a magical left foot. He can do incredible things. He obviously has to develop physically, but he is an amazing player when it comes to his vision and the way he sees things.”
