Gray is seen as a future England star and is being spoken about by most of the Premier League’s top six and some European giants.
Sources state that Manchester United have spoken about the teenage sensation alongside Manchester City, Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal. This would be quite a shock due to the fact the clubs hold a fierce rivalry but Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his new team have their eye on the country’s top talents.
The teenager has established himself as a versatile player who’s always ready to put in a shift for his team and made 44 appearances for Leeds United last season, with most of those coming as a full-back.
He may have just turned 18 but Gray has already made over 50 first-team appearances for the Whites, with interest in his services growing steadily as he moved towards that milestone.
Having come up through the club’s ranks and being a boyhood Leeds fan, Manchester United would be an unlikely destination for Gray.
He has been a sensation at his boyhood club and supporters are desperate to see him stay beyond this summer and help the side get back to the Premier League. That is a distinct possibility as sources have given us the current situation of the 18-year-old.
