Reports suggest that Manchester United are interested in Sochaux youngster Yven Moyo.

United representatives have been to watch the 16-year-old Frenchman five times and have reportedly been impressed with his performances for Sochaux's youth team.

Moyo has not yet made his top-flight debut, but the left-footed attacker is already being lauded as the most promising French player of his generation

According to the under-16 international's representatives, United are preparing a bid, which would recieve a warm welcome as Moyo seeks a long-term deal

Sir Alex Ferguson has been on a mission to aquire promising young players for the future recently. Moyo's move would follow the capture of Brazilian full backs Rafael and Fabio da Silva last year and Ritchie De Laet from Stoke last week.
