Manchester United look to have won the race to sign American youngster Will Vint despite his father being the academy director at Everton.

The 15-year-old dropped a big hint about his future on Instagram, it was reported on Tuesday. According to The Sun (h/t Colin Harvey of the Daily Star) the youngster changed his Instagram bio to "footballer at Manchester United," although this has since been removed.

It had recently been reported by Simon Jones of the MailOnline that United were looking to land the teenager, who was previously part of the US Soccer Development Academy with Real Colorado, and discussions have been held about a potential deal.

Vint is said to have had trials at both Everton and Fulham, although it's the Red Devils who look to have snapped up the promising youngster.

According to Harvey, the young footballer is a central midfielder and shone in front of United's academy director Nicky Butt during a trial with United earlier in the month.

Works out perfect b/c he doesn't need an EU passport to train in England before 18, with his dad working in England. That and the United youth set up is close enough to Liverpool he can probably go before turning 16.
