Manchester United are set to beat Liverpool to the transfer of Norwegian wonder kid, Isak Hansen-Aaroen, swiping him from under the nose of their arch rivals.
Reports claim that United have succeeded in ensuring that the 14-year-old prodigiously talented football from Norway who was on trial at Liverpool last year from Tromso IL would be joining the club on pre-contract agreement.
Liverpool and Everton were hugely interested in convincing the midfielder to sign pre-contract agreement given that he can only sign a professional contract when he clocks sixteen.
The influence of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, current United caretaker manager has been reported to have swayed the fourteen year old United supporter to join the Red Devils instead of Liverpool.
So, Tromso chiefs Svein Morten Johansen and Kristian Hoydal are set to travel to Manchester for talks with the Premier League giants, according to Bergens Tidende.
The player who was seen donning Liverpool shirt and posing for pictures for a local newspaper, is being represented by his agents to iron out a deal with rumours that the talks between the two clubs was encouraging.
Wherever the youngster midfielder ends, we hope that he is allowed to develop into his full potentials as a great midfielder with a successful football career.
