Iron boss hoping to land United youngster long-term

Scunthorpe manager Alan Knill is waiting to hear from Manchester United as he tries to bring Nicky Ajose to Glanford Park on a long-term loan. Knill had the forward on loan at Bury last season and he scored 12 goals in the Shakers' League Two promotion campaign. "So far they have not indicated what their plans are for Nicky yet," Knill told the Scunthorpe Telegraph. "I know other clubs are interested in taking him, but United have not decided yet whether they will let him out on loan again. "If they do, then it is my job to try and persuade them that allowing him to come to Scunthorpe would be in his best interests."
