Waris pleased with Manchester United interest [divider]

Trabzonspor striker Abdul Majeed Waris revealed that he is pleased that Manchester United have shown an interest.

“Manchester United is a big club and to be linked to them gives goose-bumps,” he said.

“I heard it and I read it in the newspapers so it really was a good feeling I must admit.”

Trabzonspor CEO Burak Gürdal recently confirmed that Manchester United are keeping tabs on the Ghanaian international.

“We have not have any direct offers however, we know Manchester United are scouting Waris and keeping close tabs on him,” Gürdal said.

“Not just Waris, we have a few players being closely watched.

“We only signed Waris two-months ago and are not interested in selling right now but you never know what will happen in the future.”

The highly rated Ghanian international joined Spartak Moscow in 2013 and spent last season on loan at Ligue 1 outfit Valenciennes where he found the back of the net 10 times as well as providing five assists in 21 appearances.

Waris joined Trabzonspor for £5 million this summer and has one goal and an assist in 11 appearances for the Süper Lig outfit.
