are keen to add to their defensive options and have identified Molde defender Vegard Forren as a possible candidate.

Forren plays for United legend Ole Gunnar SolskJaer at Molde and could head to Old Trafford for a fee in the region of £4 million.

Solskjaer told The Sun:

“He could play for United but I don’t need to tell him that.”

“Vegard is a very good footballer but he has to be focused on delivering and securing his place in the Norway team.”

The centre back helped Molde to the Norwegian Championship last season and since his arrival in 2007 has played almost 150 games in the Tippeligaen.

In 2011 Forren rejected the chance to join Belgium side Club Brugge and despite insisting he dreams of playing in one of the big European Leagues; he remains happy with Molde.

Forren has played four times for the national side since making his debut against Thailand in January 2012.
