Man United included in Arsenal and Man City's battle for 'new Ødegaard'

Since joining Manchester United, Sir Jim Ratcliffe has declared his desire to bring the best into the Mancunian side, but the club bosses are looking to the future too, scouting for young talents who will become the leaders of the team. And it seems that the Red Devils have found one in Norway.

According to German portal Fussball News, Manchester United have turned their attention to 17-year-old Rosenborg midfielder Sverre Nypen, who, despite his young age, is playing in the main team.

It is not yet known how much the Norwegian club will ask for their young talent, but it is known that Manchester United's league rivals, namely Arsenal and Manchester City, are also keeping tabs on him. But the Mancunians have taken the lead in this race, according to the press.

At the age of 16, the "new Ødegaard", as the Norwegian press call him, has scored three goals in four Conference League qualifying matches, which also adds to the interest from big-name clubs.
