Chelsea, Manchester City and United in £30m battle for Everton starlet Barkley

The Premier League's big three spenders are preparing for a £30million transfer battle which will shatter the world-record fee for a teenage footballer.



Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City have all made known their interest in Everton's midfield sensation Ross Barkley.
He is seen by some as an even better prospect than another Goodison Park product, Wayne Rooney, and is set to top the £25.6m United paid for the then 18-year-old seven years ago.
Although Everton will fight to hang on to Barkley, who is not 18 until December, their dire financial situation has made them vulnerable to big offers. Barcelona and Real Madrid are also monitoring the situation.
One top representative said: 'I thought Stevie Gerrard was the best kid in his position that I've ever seen, but Barkley is as good. There's no doubt he is going to be a top player.'
Barkley's progress is all the more remarkable following his horrific triple leg fracture playing for England Under-19s in Belgium last year, which put him out for 10 months.
England coach Noel Blake remembers the incident, a collision with team-mate Andre Wisdom, vividly. 'I still don't feel comfortable thinking about it, as it was so upsetting,' he said.
'Thankfully, he has recovered and it shows his strength of character that he has got back so quickly.'

Second coming: Some rate Barkley a better prospect than Rooney

David Moyes has never been afraid to follow the old adage 'if they're good enough, they're old enough'.
But the Everton manager is determined to nurture Barkley's talents at the right pace.
'Evertonians have not got an awful lot to be excited about at the moment so Ross gives everybody something to look at and cling on to,' he said.
'But I will have to pick and choose him at the right times. It is not just because of his age but also because of his lack of football.'
Barkley's future could be a key factor when Moyes decides whether or not to accept a two-year extension to his own contract.

Manchester City aiming to tie up deal for Fiorentina ace in January



Manchester City will continue their attempts to sign Fiorentina winger Alessio Cerci when the transfer window re-opens in January.
Roberto Mancini has been strongly linked with a move for the Italian midfielder who has been earning rave reviews in Serie A.
Cerci has also attracted interest from several big clubs in Spain, but reports in Italy suggest that City are still the strong favourites to clinch his signature.
The talented winger admits he was flattered by the interest which City showed in him during the summer, but is refusing to let all the speculation affect his form and will continue to give everything for Fiorentina.
Cerci said: "It was a real pleasure to be linked with a club who are as important as Manchester City, but Fiorentina are my present and future."
