Crystal Palace and Swansea City are among the clubs monitoring Greenock Morton winger Jai Quitongo.

The 20-year-old scored a spectacular winner against Queen of the South at the weekend, following up his winner against Dunfermline from the week before.

The exciting Scotland U21 international, whose father Jose started out as a winger at Benfica, is out of contract in the summer and free to talk to foreign clubs from January.

Doncaster Rovers had a bid rejected last year but they have now been joined by Premier League and Championship sides following his progress.


Hull City have previously expressed an interest in the winger, and Quitongo has been tipped to play for Scotland despite being the subject of an approach from Portugal.

Brighton, Preston and Wigan have also taken notice of his recent performances and are lining up their own offers for Quitongo, whose father Jose was himself a much travelled winger and cult figure in Scotland.

Morton are keen to offer Quitongo a new contract but will struggle to match the potential offers he will receive from English clubs.

The 19-year-old has attracted interest from both Premier League and Championship sides
