SOUGHT AFTER YOUNGSTERS

Saw today that two of our academy kids are being hotly pursued by both Manchester clubs. Harlan Perry and Brogan Popham are the players and meetings have been scheduled with their representatives by United and Citeh. More here:


Spurs and Arsenal have also been sniffing but apparently not to the same degree. We'd get compensation but not as much as if we'd signed them as pros although one of them (Perry) is still too young to do that. Begs the question though: why haven't we already signed Popham if he has that much potential? Swans dragging their feet yet again maybe?
 
If professional contracts may not be signed until 17h birthday, what is the status of these 16, and 15 year olds who occasionally play for league clubs?
