SIR ALEX FERGUSON is plotting a £4m raid for Danish goalkeeping star Anders Lindegaard.
Manchester United boss Ferguson is a big admirer of the Aalesunds stopper and reckons he can become the long-term successor to Edwin van der Sar.
United have been keeping close tabs on the 26-year-old for six months.
Goalkeeping coach Eric Steele jetted to Norway on Sunday night to watch Lindegaard in action.
Ferguson knows he must solve his keeper problem sooner rather than later and will lodge a bid in the January transfer window.
Van der Sar is 40 later this month and could hang up his gloves at the end of the season.
Lindegaard, who is 6ft 3ins tall, is renowned for being commanding in his area and strong in the air.
