Second trial for Hovland at United

(GSM) – Manchester United have invited Norwegian talent Even Hovland to spend another few days on trial at the Premiership giants.

The 20-year-old defender had already completed a trial in December, and appears to have left a positive impression on United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

Egil Mundal, director of Hovland’s current club Sogndal, confirmed to Norwegian TV channel NRK that “Even has been offered a new trial for a few days”.

“Of course, we have him permission to do that. We haven’t received a serious offer for him yet though.”
