Lindegaard claims United interest

DENMARK’s goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard has confirmed that Manchester United are considering signing him to replace Edwin van der Sar who is expected to retire at the end of the season.

Lindegaard claims United interest

Eric Steele, United’s goalkeeping coach, travelled to Norway this month to watch Lindegaard play for the Norwegian club Aalesund. It was the fifth time Steele had been to see him in action.

“There are a lot of rumours in the press about the clubs interested in me, but some of them are actually quite accurate. And yes, it is Manchester United,” said Lindegaard. “I know there is interest from United – it is not just coming from the press.”
