Denmark goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard claims that Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is "interested" in signing him.[LNB] With Edwin van der Sar's future uncertain following the veteran Dutchman's claim that he is still to decide whether to extend his career by another 12 months, Ferguson is keeping a close eye on developments across Europe.[LNB]Lindegaard has been tipped for a move to Old Trafford for some time now.[LNB]The new Denmark international currently plays in Norway for Aalesunds, where the 26-year-old has earned rave reviews.[LNB]United goalkeeping coach Eric Steele is believed to have watched Lindegaard in action, and the keeper knows the Red Devils' interest is genuine.[LNB]"There are a lot of rumours in the press about the clubs interested in me, but some of them are actually quite accurate. And yes, it is Manchester United," said Lindegaard.[LNB]"I know there is interest from United, it is not just coming from the press."[LNB]Yet Lindegaard must know he is not the only possibility for Ferguson.[LNB]Schalke's Manuel Neuer captured the imagination with his performances for Germany at the World Cup, as did Holland's Maarten Stekelenburg, who does not believe his long-term future is at Ajax.[LNB]"That is a club where everyone wants to play," Stekelenburg told Dutch sports magazine NuSport, when asked about United. "If Jol said he is aware of the interest, I will take notice. [LNB]"(However) my agent and I haven't heard anything yet."
