Peterborough, Coventry & MK Dons keen on Norwood

Skysports.com understands several clubs are hoping to land Manchester United youngster Oliver Norwood on loan. Norwood has just returned to United after enjoying a successful loan spell at Scunthorpe during the first half of the campaign. The 20-year-old made 19 appearances for Scunthorpe and his performances are thought to have alerted a number of Championship and League One clubs. Norwood, who came through United's youth system, is highly regarded within the corridors of Old Trafford and is seen as a key player in Sir Alex Ferguson's future plans. Ferguson is ready to loan out Norwood again so that he can continue his development and Championship duo Peterborough and Coventry and League One hopefuls MK Dons are all thought to be keen on the Northern Ireland international. All three are keen to bring in Norwood on a loan deal until the end of the season and Red Devils chief Ferguson will now decide where he feels is the best move for the player so that he can come back ready to make the step up to the United side next season.
