Sverre Halseth Nypan's name has been internally discussed by Manchester United's recruitment officials in recent weeks. United's admiration for the Norweigan midfielder's profile and skillset is the result of frequent scouting visits in recent seasons.There are early suggestions of a purchase and subsequent loan back to Rosenborg BK, where the youngster is said to be content in his continued development.
