Championship duo Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion are leading the chase for Scottish teenager sensation Aiden McGinlay, TEAMtalk can reveal.

McGinlay, 17, has yet to make his senior debut for Queens Park, but he is regarded as the best prospect in the club’s academy.
Queens Park are keen to tie down McGinlay down to a professional contract, but they are bracing themselves for offers for the talented wide man.
Scouts from club clubs in England and Scotland have been making regular checks on the Scotland U17 international and his suitors are weighing up offers for the teenager this summer.
Premier League new boys Ipswich, Scottish giants Celtic and Norwich City have also been credited with an interest in McGinlay. Indeed, McGinlay has previously had a two-week trial with the Tractor Boys, who have continued to monitor his progress.
