Man Utd boss Ferguson to press Flamengo to release Adryan for trials

Manchester United have maintained their interest in Brazil U17 winger Adryan.

United sounded out Flamengo about taking Adryan on trial at the turn of the year - but the approach was rejected by the Brazilian giants. Flamengo also slapped a £12 million price-tag on the young attacker.

Adryan was spotted by United scouts at last year's U17 South American championships.

And they have continued tracking his progress during the U17 World Cup in Mexico over the past fortnight.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will press again for Flamengo to release Adryan for a training stint at Carrington later this summer.
