Man Utd, Liverpool & Arsenal ‘battling’ for £15m Dortmund winger
Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal face a three-way tussle to land Borussia Dortmund winger Jacob Bruun Larsen, according to reports.
Similar to Jadon Sancho – who has been linked with the top English clubs – Larsen had a breakthrough season at Dortmund last term, making 30 appearances in all competitions, contributing three goals and three assists.
His form meant he earned his first senior cap for Denmark in March, while he has been starring for his country at the Euro Under-21 Championship this summer.
The Sun claims that Larsen is now ‘firmly on the radar of big English and European clubs’ with United, Liverpool and Arsenal set to do ‘battle’ over the 20-year-old.

The report adds that Arsenal’s former head of recruitment Sven Mislintat, who used to be Dortmund’s head of scouting, ‘identified Larsen as a summer target’ for the Gunners before his shock exit in February.
The newspaper links Liverpool to Larsen by claiming Jurgen Klopp ‘retains strong contacts’ at Dortmund but there is no mention of United’s interest after the opening paragraph.
