Man Utd eyeing Norway wonderkid! Official sent to run rule over Brann defender as Ruben Amorim rebuild continues

<p>Per <a href="https://sportwitness.co.uk/defender-asked-about-manchester-united-interest-red-devils-offcial-sent-on-sunday/" target="_blank">VG</a>, United sent scouts to watch Helland play against Viking on Sunday, as Brann won 3-1. The 20-year-old, who has won six caps for Norway's Under-21s, already has 37 senior appearances for the club; he can play at both centre-back and right-back. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Helland's agent is also reported to have been present at the game, so it is possible that he spoke with United's representative. Helland insists he does not know anything about the Red Devils' interest in him, however, but claims it is normal for players to be linked away. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Helland told VG: “I haven’t thought much about it [Manchester United] That’s just the way it is. That’s how the football world is."</p><p>Asked if he had any thoughts about leaving, he replied: “I’m very calm about it. I feel very comfortable here, and my plan is to stay here. No, I’m going to play really well with Brann.”</p>

WHAT HELLAND SAID

<p>United are clearly casting their net far and wide as they seek new signings for Ruben Amorim. The manager has thus far seen <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-complete-matheus-cunha-transfer-five-year-contract-red-devils-dream-reality-brazil-international-forward/blt24864339ba42c040" target="_blank">Matheus Cunha</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/diego-leon-prepares-join-manchester-united/bltd84582fc36335f20" target="_blank">Diego Leon</a> arrive this summer. </p>
