Several Premier League clubs are battling to sign American-born Nigerian striker Daryl Dike.
Team Talk is reporting that the United States international has no shortage of admirers in the English top-flight with almost half of the clubs interested in his services.
Manchester United and Chelsea are keen on Daryl, whose brother and sister, play international football for the Nigeria national teams.
Everton, Leeds United, Wolverhampton Wanderers, West Ham and Newcastle United have all scouted the 20-year-old with a view to a swoop in the summer transfer window.
It has been suggested that the Toffees have shown the most interest in Dike and are mulling over whether or not to table an official bid for the Orlando City loanee who is valued in the region of £17 million by his parent club.
Dike has seen his stock rise following a string of impressive displays for Barnsley, scoring 5 goals in 11 appearances, and helping the club register nine wins in the Championship.
The American-Nigerian seems destined to remain at Barnsley, who have an option to buy him when his loan deal expires, if they are promoted to the Premier League at the end of this season.
