FULHAM have entered the race
for Landskrona`s highly-coveted forward Alexander Farnerud.
Manchester United had the player at
Old Trafford for a second trial earlier in the summer, but Fulham have now
made contact for a player also tracked by Feyenoord and Ajax.
The 17-year-old is seen as one of the brightest young talents in Sweden,
and Cottagers boss Jean Tigana has been alerted to his precocious ability.
Speaking to Proffs, Farnerud said: "Yes, I have received a letter from
Fulham manager Jean Tigana, and they want me to come over to the club."
The youngster, though, seems unconcerned by all the hype, adding: "As
I have stated before, it's BoIS that matter, at least for the remainder
of the season."
Tigana is connected with the Farnerud family, as he took the player`s elder
brother Pontus to Monaco during his time in the Principality, so he may
have an advantage in the race to sign the youngster.
