Rosenborg midfielder Sverre Nypan has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months, with Arsenal and Aston Villa interested.
Arsenal, Manchester United, and Aston Villa were linked with a move for Sverre Nypan during the winter transfer window. According to a report by Give Me Sport, the teenage sensation is relieved that he did not make a rash decision by joining Arsenal when the opportunity presented itself.
It seems that the 18-year-old dreams of a move to Manchester United instead. It will be interesting to see if the Red Devils come forward with an offer to sign the Norwegian at the end of the season. The report states that Arsenal midfielder Martin Odegaard wanted his compatriot to move to the north London club, but Arsenal failed to secure an agreement with him.
It will be interesting to see if the North Londoners decide to come forward with an offer in the summer. The 18-year-old midfielder is highly rated across Europe, and he is regarded as an elite talent. He could develop into a world-class player with the right guidance.
Joining one of the biggest clubs in the world will be quite attractive for him. Arsenal and Manchester United could provide him with the platform to develop further. Both clubs have a proven track record of nurturing young players, and they could help him fulfil his potential.
Aston Villa keen on Nypan as well
Aston Villa have been keen on him as well. If they manage to secure UEFA Champions League qualification for next season, they will certainly fancy their chances of signing the youngster. Nypan needs to join a club where he will get regular time. Sitting on the bench at a big club is unlikely to benefit him. If Aston Villa can provide him with game-time assurances, they could be an interesting opportunity for him.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops. The 18-year-old midfielder has a bright future ahead of himself, and whoever ends up signing him will have a future star on their hands. The teenage sensation has two years left on his deal with Rosenborg, and he could be available for a reasonable amount of money at the end of the season.
