Fergie Keeping Tabs On Anderlecht Kid
According to reports, Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is keeping tabs on Anderlecht's Belgian superkid defender Anthony vanden Borre.

The 16-year old has only recently made his first-team debut for Belgian outfit Anderlecht and Sir Alex reportedly sent out scouts to watch Anderlecht's Beker van Belgie (Belgian FA Cup) clash with Beveren.

Defender Vanden Borre has been capped at U16 level for the Belgian national squad and has also received an U21 call up. Many critics regard him as one of the hottest talents in Belgian football.

Meanwhile, Vanden Borre's team-mate Vincent Kompany, who has also been scouted by United in the past, looks set to stay with Anderlecht.
