Premier League giants Arsenal and Manchester United are both interested in Fulham schoolboy Dominic Vose, with the young midfielder already being dubbed the ‘New Paul Scholes’ in some corners for his goalscoring from midfield.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will run the rule over 15-year-old Vose at Arsenal’s London Colney training ground, with Wenger hoping that he can persuade the young starlet that the Emirates Stadium is the place where Vose will develop most as a footballer.

Vose spent his half-term break last week in Manchester, with United, manager Sir Alex Ferguson also keen to snatch up the midfielder and convince Vose that the Premiership Champions and Old Trafford is the right place for his footballing education.

Vose will not be able to sign his first professional contract until his 17th birthday, but should he choose to leave Craven Cottage to join Arsenal or the Red Devils, Fulham will almost certainly demand a huge amount of compensation from their Premier League rivals for their young prodigy.
