Borussia Dortmund are tracking 15-year-old FC Copenhagen midfielder Ilyas Houira, according to Tipsbladet.

The Danish outlet reports that the Bundesliga giants are among several European heavyweights keeping tabs on the youngster, with Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Ajax and FC Barcelona also mentioned.

Several of the aforementioned clubs were reportedly already monitoring Houira before he joined FC Copenhagen from Danish champions AGF on a three-year deal on his 15th birthday in March.

The midfielder holds dual Moroccan and Danish citizenship and has recently been called up to Morocco’s U17 national team, according to the report.

Houira has already represented Morocco at youth level, as he made his debut for the U16 side in June.
