Aston Villa and Celtic are following highly-rated young Ghana striker Aziz Musibau.

The 17-year-old has been starring for Dreams FC in their domestic league and during the African Confederations Cup where they lost in the semi finals to Egyptian side Zamalek.

Such is the teenager’s promise that he has already been compared to former Chelsea striker and Ivory Coast international Didier Drogba owing to his barnstorming running style and powerful shot.

Ghana are also earmarking the U20 international as a player who can spearhead their seniors’ qualifying campaign for the next World Cup.

Dreams FC have a reputation for producing talented youngsters and a number of European sides have been following Musibau’s progress along with his team-mate Emmanuel Agyei, a 19-year-old defensive midfielder.
