Leeds, Sunderland, Bolton and Rangers are all showing an interest in Real Mallorca’s highly-rated Cameroon international striker Samuel Eto’o
The 21-year-old impressed scouts representing the three English clubs and the Ibrox giants when playing for his country against Argentina last week, and a move to Britain could be on the cards in the summer.
« He was outstanding against Argentina and he scored again at the weekend, » the player’s agent Willie McKay told TEAMtalk.
« Roy Aitken of Leeds, Adrian Heath from Sunderland, Bolton assistant boss Phil Brown and Rangers assistant manager Andy Watson all watched him.
« They will all watch the situation closely but Real are looking for money, they are wanting £10million but it is possible he could go for £6million.
« Samuel wants to move to England in the summer so we will wait and see what happens. »
Eto’o was the youngest player at France ’98, won an Olympic gold medal at Sydney in 2000 and is a double African Nations Cup champion from 2000 and 2002 with Cameroon.
He was Mallorca’s record signing in June 2001 when he joined for £4.5million from Real Madrid.
