Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona are all after Atheltic Bilbao teenage midfielder Inigo Ruiz de Galarreta.

The player, who only turned 17 last month, has already attracted heavy attention due to his star performances for Atheltic Bilbao's youth teams and a brief appearance in the first team.

He is a highly rated player with excellent vision and technique.

Athletic coach Joaquin Caparros gave him his first-team debut in a recent friendly match against Spanish third division side Lemona.

Scouts from Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona traveled to Spain to watch the 17-year-old, and according to Tutto Mercato, each club is set to table a bid.
