Bayern Munich steal a march on Liverpool and Manchester City in the race for Aston Villa starlet Carney Chukwuemeka, according to a report.

Bayern Munich are reportedly at the head of the queue to sign Aston Villa starlet Carney Chukwuemeka.

The 17-year-old has featured as an unused substitute in two of Villa's Premier League games this term, and he has starred for the youth teams with seven goals and five assists in all competitions.

Chukwuemeka's performances have allegedly attracted the interest of Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool, but according to Football Insider, Bayern are leading the race for his signature.

The report claims that Dean Smith is keen to promote Chukwuemeka to the first team, and Villa will hope to tie him down to a new deal when he turns 18 in October, but his future with the West Midlands outfit is still shrouded in uncertainty.

Chukwuemeka made his debut for the England Under-18s in a March friendly against Wales - coming off the bench to score his side's second in a 2-0 win.
