Chelsea and Manchester United are set to battle it out for the signature of South Korean starlet Son Heung-Min, reports have claimed.

The talented 20-year-old attacking midfielder currently plays his football in Germany with Hamburg but both Chelsea and United are keen to do a deal in the summer.

Hamburg face a battle to keep hold of the player and will demand at least £10million if they are to sell, which would not be a problem for Europe's big spenders.

United and Chelsea have had scouts watch the player, who has been compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, while Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal have also shown an interest.
