NK Kustosija superkid Dino Klapija a target for Man Utd, Chelsea

NK Kustosija superkid Dino Klapija is a target for Manchester United and Chelsea.

Klapija actually was born in North Hempstead, USA, and came through the New York City FC academy before he and his family moved to Croatia.

He was expected to join Dinamo Zagreb before NK Kustosija stepped in, says the Daily Mail.

Klapija and his family chose NK Kustosija thanks to their reputation of developing young talent. Mikayil Faye, 19, left the club earlier this year for Barcelona.

While he has played for USA U16, the striker was spotted by United and Chelsea impressing for Croatia U17s.

NK Kustosija will sell for an initial fee of £5m.
