Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea are all keen on Spanish starlet Hicham Khaloua, skysports.com understands.
The 16-year-old is currently with Spanish second division side Cartagena, where he is already training with the first team.
Known as Hicham, the young striker has a hugely impressive record at youth level and last season scored over 40 goals.
He is now attracting interest from around Spain with Real Madrid, Barcelona and the big-spending Malaga all keen to recruit him.
As Hicham is 16, he cannot yet sign a professional deal and that has again put the English sides on alert, who can sign him and only be due to pay minimal compensation.
And skysports.com understands that the interest from England is very strong, with United, City, Liverpool and Chelsea all looking to sign him.
Hicham, of Moroccan descent, is a Spanish citizen and is ready to play for Spain's youth setup.
All the clubs interested were understood to have been in Spain at the weekend to watch Hicham in action as he played for his regional side Murcia.
Hicham is expected to decide his future in the coming weeks, but it seems he could very well be heading to England.
