PSV Eindhoven wonderkid Zakaria Bakkali has 25 agents working on a deal to take him to one of Europe’s top clubs, according to reports.

Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United are among the sides rumoured to be keen to sign the 18-year-old Belgium international.

Bakkali is out of contract next summer and PSV academy director Art Langeler says Bakkali is on his way.

Langeler says he realised the Dutch club had no chance of keeping their starlet when a 25th agent approached the club to say they were representing Bakkali.

He told Dutch site Soccer News: “His time in Eindhoven is over. Let me make one thing very; Bakkali is a very likable, sweet and somewhat naive boy. We don’t need to elaborate further.

“Sometimes you have to sometimes take your loss. The straw that broke the came’s back was the 25th agent who reported to us.”

Roma, Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid are among the other teams said to be tracking the young winger.
