Dinamo Zagreb's Kovacic set for Arsenal or Man Utd - agent

The agent of Dinamo Zagreb starlet Mateo Kovacic says his client is likely to end up in the English Premier League.

The 17-year old Croatia youth international midfielder is reportedly wanted by Italian club Juventus but his representative Marcel Kacinari insists England is where he will land.

"I will not hide the fact there was interest from Juventus a couple of months ago but nothing since then," Kacinari told Goal.com.

"It is most likely that he will go to England where the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United are leading the race. Dinamo Zagreb have done business in the past with several Premier League teams.

"Those clubs [Arsenal and Manchester United] are spending a lot of money investing in young talent and have the patience to wait.

"All the major European clubs are following him and with him playing against Real Madrid on Wednesday, the list of suitors will increase."
