Agent: Big five want Gamst
The race is on to sign Morten Gamst Pedersen and the top-five clubs
in England want him, according to his agent.
The Blackburn Rovers winger has been linked with a number of clubs
in recent months following a great run of form.
The 25-year-old is reported to have a release clause in his
contract, which looks to make Pedersen a very tempting
target.
Now his agent Rune Hauge has stated that Manchester United,
Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham all have an interest in
his charge and admits contacts have been made.
"All the big five follow Morten's situation." confirmed agent Rune
Hauge to Dagbladet.
"We are in contact with the clubs. Morten plays in a special
position on the left and can play as well both in 4-3-3 and
4-4-2."
"The big ones might not have space for players of his type and we
might see players in that position leave some of the clubs the
coming weeks."
Hauge's quotes are unlikely to sit too well at Ewood Park, with
manager Mark Hughes stating earlier this summer that he had no
intention of letting Pedersen leave.
