Cercle Brugge chief reveals 'Man Utd, Chelsea, Spurs scouting our players'

Cercle Brugge technical director Rembert Vromant has revealed that his players are being scouted by Premier League teams.

The Belgian's club's chief has stated that Manchester United and Chelsea are among the teams doing the scouting.

The Belgian Pro League club sold Jonathan David, Jeremy Doku, Victor Boniface, and Charles De Ketelaere in recent years.

Vromant told Het Laatste Nieuws: “Alan Minda and Felipe Augusto have a lot of potential. I think our central defenders should be valued more.

"We are taking Daland's departure into account this summer. And then of course there is Kevin Denkey. From the calls I receive for him, I notice that he is very good at market.

“We are now in the phase where files from the head scout for all teams end up on the desk of the technical director.

"The decisions are made: who do we go for? Well, in England, Germany and France, teams want to go for Denkey.

“Listen, an average of sixteen scouts come to watch every home match. I have seen the level of those scouts rise this season.

Manchester United, Tottenham, Chelsea, Lens, Lille, Salzburg, Leverkusen, Ajax, Aston Villa… They don't come only for our opponent, believe me. We bring very interesting players. A young, athletic profile with a good mentality."
