Premiership rivals watch defender

Two Premiership clubs have been tracking talented French defender.

Chelsea and Manchester United have both sent officials to watch under 19 French international Kurt Zouma.

Zouma was watched as his side, Saint Etienne were beaten by Toulouse last night.

The 17 year old has been earmarked by experts for a bright future and is regarded as a hot prospect for the future.

Saint Etienne are desperate to hold on to Zouma for at least a couple of years but a big offer could tempt them to talk business.
