City enter Elm chase
Manchester City have joined the chase for highly-rated Swedish midfielder Rasmus Elm, who has also attracted interest from Everton and Fulham.
Elm is one of the best prospects to come out of Sweden in recent years and is expected to leave Kalmar FF before the close of the transfer window.
Heerenveen and Valenciennes have seen bids rejected for the 21-year-old, while Fulham have also reportedly failed with an offer.
He visited Everton's training ground recently and David Moyes' side had been in pole position to agree a deal for the youngster.
However, big-spending City are now showing an interest and have sent a scout to watch Elm in Kalmar's clash with Elfsborg on Sunday.
"It is correct that Manchester City will be here," Kalmar FF chairman Jonny Pettersson told Sportbladet.
"The more clubs who are interested, the better for us.
"What is important is to find a solution which is good for both Rasmus and us."
Pettersson also confirmed that Everton are still to make a concrete offer, but says Kalmar have received a bid from another Premier League side.
He added: "A serious offer has not come in from Everton. We have got offers from another English club and a Dutch one."
