Derby County have moved to sign James Wilson on loan from Manchester United.
Despite United selling Javier Hernández to Bayer Leverkusen and allowing Adnan Januzaj to join Borussia Dortmund on loan, the manager, Louis van Gaal, looks likely to allow Wilson – one of only four recognised forwards at Old Trafford – to move, albeit with an emergency recall clause.
It has been reported more than 20 clubs have inquired about the 19-year-old, who has yet to feature this season for United, and the Derby manager, Paul Clement, has revealed he is among those interested.
“It is a possibility but not a certainty,” said Clement. “We have shown an interest. He is a very talented player and a number of other clubs have shown an interest as well. We are waiting to hear back from Manchester United.”
Clement, the former Chelsea, PSG and Real Madrid coach, is the second Championship manager to confirm his interest in Wilson after Bolton’s Neil Lennon did likewise. MK Dons and Wolves are also understood to be on the list.
