Noubissie, on the other hand, is eyed by RB Leipzig and Strasbourg who are making attempts to convince him to move abroad with his situation being described as "open". There are other European clubs keeping tabs on the France Under-16 international because of his continental heritage as he was born in Scotland to father, Patrick, who is from Paris. Juventus want Rashford! Nevertheless, United are thought to be leading the race, especially in Ridgeon's case as they have tabled an "impressive proposal".
