West Ham ace Reece Oxford tracked by long-term admirers Man City and Borussia Dortmund

REECE OXFORD was tracked by Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund last week.

The West Ham youngster was watched by the Champions League giants in an Under-23 match against Chelsea where he scored the opener.

City and Dortmund were joined by Hoffenheim when they watched the 19-year-old in the clash at Aldershot.

Oxford has yet to play under Manuel Pellegrini and European clubs are aware he could be available in January.

City are long-term admirers and could boost their homegrown quota by signing him.

However, Oxford revealed he wanted to stay and fight for his place at the London Stadium if the club tried to force him out in January.

Oxford became the Hammers youngest-ever player when he appeared in the Europa League at the age of 16.

But the England-20 defender has since become frustrated at being dumped in the West Ham Under-23 squad.

Oxford, who is 20 next week, believes there have been three bids of between £10million and £20million for his services.

But he is said to have concerns that the club may try to flog him to Borussia Monchengladbach, where he spent last season on loan.
