The Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been linked with the highly talented Croatian star Mateo Kovacic, but according to the youngster’s agent Arsenal are facing competition from from Alex Ferguson’s Man Utd team, who are currently bringing lots of talented youngsters from all over the world to Old Trafford.
Kovavic currently plays for Dinamo Zagreb and although only 17 he is a regular starter and is on record as the youngster ever player to captain the Croatian giants. His agent Marcel Kacinari was asked yesterday about reported rumours that Juventus had been sniffing around hoping to do a deal.

“I will not hide the fact there was interest from Juventus a couple of months ago but nothing since then,” Kacinari said. “It is most likely that he will go to England where the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United are leading the race. Dinamo Zagreb have done business in the past with several Premier League teams.”
“Those clubs [Arsenal and Manchester United] are spending a lot of money investing in young talent and have the patience to wait.”
“All the major European clubs are following him and with him playing against Real Madrid on Wednesday, the list of suitors will increase.”
There seem to be more and more top player’s arriving from Croatia nowadays, and it seems that Kovavic could be the next best thing to arrive in the Premier League. But will he end up at Arsenal or Man Utd?
