Manchester United Not in the Race for AIK’s Kevin Filling
United Uninterested in the Young Talent
Recent reports have clarified that Manchester United is not pursuing 16-year-old Kevin Filling from AIK.
Lack of Immediate Interest
The young forward had recently been the subject of speculation linking him to the Premier League giants. However, according to the Manchester Evening News, any potential transfer in January has been dismissed, as United’s scouting efforts are currently directed towards British players for their academy.
Regulatory Restrictions
Due to EU regulations, Manchester United cannot officially sign Filling until he reaches the age of 18. Consequently, the club is not expected to make a move for the promising attacker in the upcoming January transfer window. This situation opens the possibility for RB Leipzig, who have already expressed interest in the player by contacting AIK.
