Cardiff have received three bids for teenage star Aaron Ramsey from Premier League clubs.

Manchester United have been confirmed as one, and appear front-runners to snap up the talented midfielder, while Arsenal and Liverpool are believed to be the other interested parties.

The Bluebirds have granted the 17-year-old permission to discuss a potential transfer with two of the sides in the running, with the Red Devils already confirming that they are set to hold talks.

United appear confident of snapping up the Welsh U21 international in a £4.5million deal, which would also see the youngster loaned back to Ninian Park next season.

However, Arsenal's track record of nurturing young talent into Premier League stars is likely to work in their favour, while Liverpool are also believed to be favouring a move which would see Ramsey return to Cardiff in August.
