United States international Michael Bradley is currently attracting the interest of three English clubs. With Celtic also hot on his heels, Dutch club Heerenveen has stated that Bradley is available for transfer at the right price. Bradley is fresh off of the Olympics and is returning to Europe today.

Middlesbrough, Blackburn, and Everton are the three sides interested in the American. He has previously been sought after by clubs like Derby County. Many people in American soccer circles believe that Bradley has what it takes to make it in the Premier League, and he showed that during his time in the Dutch league. The 21 year old took the reigns of Heerenveen as he pulled the strings from midfield and often chipped in with vital goals.

The bidding war is just beginning for the young American, so watch this space.

Michael Bradley Factfile:

  • 30 appearances for Heerenveen in the league last season
  • 15 league goals last season
  • Has 20 caps for the United States with 2 goals
  • Member of the 2008 USA Olympic team
