French Ligue 1 side AS Monaco are monitoring Ghanaian wunderkind Bernard Mensah, according to the Portuguese publication Record.

If the reports are true, it means Monaco must beat competition from an unnamed Spanish La Liga side who have also registered their interest in the player.

The 20-year-old is gaining international recognition after scoring four goals in seven matches for Vitoria Guimaraes in the Portuguese top-flight.

Giants FC Porto are keen on signing the youngster as they rebuild their squad with youthful players.
