Hammers face fight to keep starlet
The Hammers only signed Vose from London rivals Fulham last year, when he was just 15.[LNB]Now Sky Sports understands the 16-year-old is attracting big interest from abroad with leading clubs from Holland and Portugal looking to snatch him away this summer.[LNB]Vose cannot sign a professional contract until he is 17 and should he move abroad, as he is entitled to do, only minimal compensation would be due.[LNB]Being under 17, Vose is also allowed to join a club in England, but being one of the top prospects in the country the compensation deal is likely to be much greater.[LNB]This, though, is not putting off suitors like Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal.[LNB]Vose was first looked at by United and Arsenal 18 months ago, when he was labelled the new Paul Scholes.[LNB]Despite training at United, West Ham persuaded him to move across the capital from Fulham, but now they face a battle to cling on to him.[LNB]West Ham are desperate for the midfielder to remain and will look to persuade him that his future is best served at Upton Park.[LNB][LNB]
