Arsenal, Man City and Tottenham join race for 16-year-old talent Eduardo Camavinga

Eduardo Camavinga has become the latest young talent to be catapulted to centre stage following his starring role for Rennes in their victory over PSG .

The 16-year-old midfielder produced a mature display in the middle of the park as the Ligue 1 side ran out 2-1 winners over the defending champions.

A video of Camavinga's display is already making its way round social media after a performance that belied his years.

And his talents have not gone unnoticed to Premier League clubs, as the Mail report that Arsenal , Man City and Tottenham are all chasing the youngster.

Spurs are believed to have been interested in signing Camavinga last season after he made his first-team debut.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are also thought to be keeping tabs on the youngster, who enjoyed a breakthrough campaign for Rennes in the previous campaign.

Camavinga made seven appearances for the French side, and has so far featured in three of their matches this season.

But it was his efforts against PSG which have made the wider football world sit up and take notice, as he dominated a midfield against the likes of Marco Verratti and Marquinhos.

The teenager even got an assist for good measure, setting up Romain Del Castillo for his second-half winner.

Rennes boss Julien Stephan said: "He played a match, indeed, like the whole team - very interesting.

"We are talking to him. He is someone who is also very well-constructed intellectually, who knows how to question himself, who knows how to ask the right questions.

"Many of the pros have taken him under their wing, because he is very respectful in the dressing room and very attentive to their advice. He blossomed with us this summer."

Camavinga is currently going through the processes to become a French national, and has drawn similarities with Paul Pogba.

Barcelona currently have the added advantage of Camavinga sharing an agent with their forward Ousmane Dembele, who also started his career at Rennes.
