Falkirk are ready to cash in on prize assets Lee Miller, Collin Samuel and Mark Kerr after an army of scouts from English Premiership clubs has been camped at Brockville all season.

Champions Arsenal are one of the interested clubs, Falkirk general manager Crawford Baptie confirmed on Thursday.

The Gunners are thought to be particularly interested in Miller, the 19-year-old who has netted 20 times in just 51 games for the Bairns, including 12 this season.

He and Samuel, the lightning-quick striker from Trinidad, have already been on trial at Everton and Kerr, the Scotland Under-21 international, has had trials at Leeds, Celtic and Ipswich.

The trio are among the hottest properties in Scottish football and First Division leaders Falkirk have made it clear they will allow the players to move on should the right offer come along.

Baptie said: "I could tell you 20 English Premiership clubs have watched Lee Miller.

"I look at all the faxes that come in and I have seen Arsenal's. The amount of Premiership clubs who come here is incredible.

"It is like a Who's Who in the stand. We have to put 20 to 30 seats aside for them. Last season it would be only five or six.

"There have been scouts from English First Division clubs as well, plus Scottish Premier League.

"Celtic's scout was here on Tuesday night as well.

"But we have only received one offer and that was for Collin Samuel. It was from a Scottish Premier League club during the transfer window and it was rejected.

"If we could sell them on then it would be to the highest bidder. The players know that if someone does come in with the right money then we would not stand in their way."

Miller was on target in the 3-0 win over Clyde on Tuesday and the scouts saw midfielder Kerr complete the match and Samuel withdrawn on the hour.

Miller and Samuel spent a week with Everton just days after their sensational performances in a 4-0 Scottish Cup thrashing of Hearts in January, in which Samuel notched a first half hat-trick.

Both players are believed to be rated in the £500,000 bracket, with Kerr not quite as expensive.

Baptie said: "They went down to Everton for a week's trial and David Moyes said they had acquitted themselves well and that they would keep tabs on them."

Toffees boss Moyes had used his friendship with ex-Dunfermline team-mate Ian McCall to set up the trial and Falkirk were to have been able to borrow a couple of promising Goodison youngsters in return.

But McCall's controversial decamping to Dundee United put an end to that and the Falkirk are still in compensation negotiations with the Tannadice club over the poaching of their boss.

The Bairns are still on course to take the First Division title despite the setback of losing McCall but know promotion is unlikely.

Crumbling Brockville does not meet SPL safety requirements, which stipulate 10,000 seats must be in place.

Work on a brand new ground on the outskirts of the town is about to begin but cannot be completed in time for the new season.

Falkirk are hoping to be allowed into the SPL via a temporary ground-sharing agreement with Airdrie United but this remains a long shot.

Baptie said: "We are in discussions about ground-sharing and we will have to put a submission to the SPL before March 20."
