Manchester City look set to beat off Manchester United and an intervention from Sir Alex Ferguson to land Hearts youngster Kier McMeekin. ‌

Both English Premier League giants have both pitched to land the highly-rated Scottish youth international. ‌

City look to have won the fight, despite United sending out the big guns. ‌
