Scotland star Aaron Hickey is wanted by three of England’s ‘Big Five’ sides.

Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United are all ready to bid up to £50million for the Brentford’s star. German giants Bayern Munich have also been keeping a close eye on the 21-year-old full-back. Hickey has made good progress under Bees boss Thomas Frank after being lured from Serie A side Bologna where he spent two seasons following his move from Hearts as a teenager.
