Wonderboy Franco Di Santo will arrive in England this week and take his pick from TEN Premier League clubs chasing his signature.The 18-year-old Argentine striker is hailed as the one of the world's top emerging talents.
Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea all want to discuss a one-year loan deal.

That would cost them about £500,000, but the big deal would come next summer when Di Santo would cost around £10million in a permanent transfer. As well as the Premier League's big four, Di Santo is also wanted by Middlesbrough, Everton, Tottenham, Portsmouth, Blackburn and Manchester City.

The 6ft 4in youngster plays in Chile for Audax Italiano and has been described as the most exciting talent to emerge in South America since Diego Maradona.United thought they had stolen a march on their rivals after Sir Alex Ferguson received rave reviews about him. But United's weren't able to secure his signature before other clubs were alerted to Di Santo's precocious talent.
