Arsenal and Chelsea in five-club transfer battle to land son of ex-Premier League star
MANCHESTER CITY rookie Kian Breckin is on the hitlist of a host of Premier League clubs.
The 19-year-old midfielder is the son of former Nottingham Forest centre-back Ian.
The likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Southampton have all watched the midfielder in action.
However, only a sizable bid could tempt City to sell.
Breckin has played 21 times in the Premier League 2 for City’s U21s this season.
He has an impressive return from midfield, scoring seven goals and providing four assists this term.
The teenager first joined City back in 2015.
He played a key role in helping the club to the U18 Premier League title in 2020-21 and 2021-22.
The youngster then moved up to City’s Elite Development Squad for the current campaign.
SunSport exclusively revealed in January that Breckin was attracting interest from Southampton.

The former centre-back, 47, also spent time with Rotherham, Chesterfield and Wigan.
