Football: United express interest in Zidane

LONDON: Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Enzo Zidane, the 16-year-old son of legendary former French international Zinedine Zidane.

Gazzetta dello Sport believes that the club is keen on the young midfielder as are Italian giants Juventus.

Currently at Real Madrid, the young midfielder is set to sign for Belgian side Standard Liege on loan but interest shown by Sir Alex Ferguson may put a halt to such a move.

Enzo Zidane is also currently in a tug of war between France and Spain, both of whom are keen for the teenager to represent them at international level.
