TMW: Milan, Barcelona and Man Utd admirers of teenage Royal Antwerp star

AC Milan’s Belgian ranks could grow even further as they are interested in signing Arthur Vermeeren from Royal Antwerp, a report claims.

TMW writes that Milan – while waiting for Charles De Ketelaere to prove that he is worth the money invested in the summer – are continuing to look at the Belgian league and the 18-year-old midfielder Vermeeren has attracted their attention.

Barcelona and Manchester United are also following him which shows the level of talent that he has. The teenager has played 32 games this season, scoring his first professional goal on May 14 against Club Brugge.

Vermeeren is a defensive midfielder naturally but he is extremely skilled with the ball. He is described in the report as ‘a complete midfielder’, whose strengths are dynamism and intensity.

He could soon make yet another breakthrough in his career as Domenico Tedesco is considering calling him up for the Belgian senior national team
