According to Florian Plettenberg, Manchester United are keen on signing Kevin Filling, who could part ways with AIK in the upcoming winter transfer window. The teenage sensation is valued at around €3 million, which seems to be an absolute bargain given his massive potential.
Filling has come up the ranks at AIK. The 16-year-old’s impressive performances at the youth level have helped him break into this first team. Since getting promoted to the senior side, he has been involved in seven matches and has even bagged two goals in just 203 minutes.
The teenager is making quite a name for himself with his performances for AIK’s first team and the Swedish youth team. The young striker has all the qualities needed to succeed at the highest level. Not only does he have an eye for goal, but he is also someone who links up well with those around him.
The youngster’s sensational rise has resulted in a lot of interest from across Europe. Several Bundesliga clubs are keen on signing the 16-year-old, but it seems Manchester United could end up securing his services.
The Red Devils have focused on signing young prospects who can help them in the long run. They are interested in Filling’s services as they feel he could become one of their mainstays going forward. Manchester United are already in concrete talks to bring him to Old Trafford.
While the young Swede’s contract at AIK runs until the summer of 2028, he could be on the move as early as the winter transfer window. Since he is valued at around €3 million, Manchester United should not have any problems striking a deal with the Swedish club.
The Manchester-based giants could face significant competition for his services, but as things stand, they have already stepped up their pursuit of his signature.
