Manchester United and Arsenal are among several top Premier League clubs to have submitted formal enquiries regarding Club Brugge defender Joaquin Seys.

The Belgian full-back has emerged as one of Europe’s most coveted young defensive talents following extensive scouting from clubs across England.

Aston Villa have also entered the picture, with reports from The Sun confirming all three clubs have made direct contact to establish the conditions of a potential deal.

Newcastle United are monitoring Seys as well, though they are understood to be trailing their Premier League rivals in the race for his signature.

Club Brugge are in no hurry to sell the 23-year-old, who still has three years remaining on his current contract at the Belgian club.

The Bruges outfit are expected to demand a fee of €35 million, equivalent to around £30 million, before agreeing to any departure.

Manchester United are particularly motivated to secure a long-term solution at left-back and are not expected to be put off by that valuation.

It remains unclear whether United’s decision-makers will move during the current transfer window or hold off while addressing other priorities first.

Elsewhere, Tottenham full-back Djed Spence has been offered to Manchester United as they assess their options across the entire backline.

Spence is capable of playing on either flank and is keen to secure a move that guarantees him regular first-team football.

Seys has developed steadily through the Club Brugge academy system, earning a reputation for his athleticism and sharp defensive awareness.

His composure in possession and ability to contribute going forward have attracted the attention of several Premier League recruitment departments throughout the season.

The left-back’s versatility and consistency at a high level of European football have made him one of the more sought-after defensive prospects on the continent heading into the summer window.
