Trio in for Leeds youngster
Quote:
Leeds United have confirmed three Premier League clubs want to sign rookie defender Ben Gordon.
The 16-year-old is due to leave Elland Road over the summer after rejecting both a scholarship and a professional contract with the League One club.
The England youth international has been strongly linked with Chelsea, but Jose Mourinho's side have competition for the left-back.
Though the identities of the interested clubs were not disclosed by Leeds, the West Yorkshire side admitted three top-flight teams want Gordon.
Leeds will receive compensation for Gordon when the youngster makes a decision on his new club, if a deal can not be agreed upon.
If the defender opts for a move to Stamford Bridge he will follow former Whites youngsters Tom Taiwo and Michael Woods, who linked up with Chelsea last year.
