Former United man keen on English return

Birmingham and Ipswich are weighing up moves for former Manchester United man Quinton Fortune, skysports.com understands. Fortune is available on a free transfer after a short spell in Belgium with Tubize. The 32-year-old is keen to win a move back to England and he has been invited to join both Birmingham and Ipswich for pre-season training. Fortune's former United team-mate Roy Keane is keen to have a look at him in training, while Birmingham chief Alex McLeish sees his versatility as an attractive proposition. Hull are also thought to be keeping tabs on the South African international as Phil Brown looks to bolster his squad options. Fortune's agent Hayden Evans, who is brokering a deal for the former Bolton man, admits the player is set to link up with Birmingham and Ipswich when pre-season training gets underway next month. "Birmingham and Ipswich have invited Quinton to train with them so they can both have a look at him," Evans told skysports.com. "Quinton is looking for a new club and he would be keen on returning to England. "Phil Brown is also keeping tabs on him as Quinton is a free agent."
