As early as this week Manchester United could capture 15-year-old Norwegian midfielder Mats Moller Daehli.

According to Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, the teenager has been on trial at United and if the paper work goes through this week, he could arrive at Old Trafford in February. Although he currently plays for Norwegian side Stabaeck, Daehli apparently firt came to Manchester United 's attention through one of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's academies.

Daehli has already trained with the Stabaeck first team and coach Pal Berg has termed him "an exceptional talent" and potentially a "complete player".

Manchester United have in recent years scoured the world for top young talent, with the likes of the Da Silva twins and most recently Portugese youngster Bebe making their mark.
