17-year-old U.S. U-17 and Philadelphia Union striker Malik Jakupovic is reportedly attracting interest from Borussia Dortmund, Chelsea, Stuttgart and Monaco 🇺🇸👀
Dortmund reportedly had €2M and €3M bids rejected this past summer and recently scouted him in Spain. Philadelphia are reportedly seeking an eight-figure fee, with Jakupovic under contract through 2030.
The teenager recently captained the U.S. U-17s against Ireland and scored against the Netherlands during their camp in Marbella, Spain, where the group competed in U-18 fixtures.

Four of those five victories have come under interim head coach Ryan Richter.
