Lois Openda is on the radar of a host of Premier League clubs

Premier League trio Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool are set to battle it out for RB Leipzig striker Lois Openda.

Openda, 23, is turning plenty of heads in Europe after netting five goals in his opening 10 games since joining the Bundesliga side from Lens over the summer, including against Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

And English rivals United, Chelsea and Liverpool have all been credited with a potential move for the Belgian talent.

Spanish outlet Fichajes claim Chelsea could be ready to break the bank for yet another youngster in January but will face stiff competition from United.

Caught Offside say Liverpool fans should also keep an eye on Openda given their close relationship with Leipzig after Dominik Szoboszlai's move to Anfield this summer.

Any deal for the in-form forward will not come cheap however, with Sky Sport Germany revealing Openda has a £69million release clause in his contract, which was signed only a few months ago.

Openda has 11 caps for the Belgian national team, scoring two goals, while he earned his move to the Bundesliga after netting 21 goals in 42 games for Lens.
