Former Portsmouth player Sol Campbell might return to Premier League champions Manchester United to save their injury-hit defence
Manchester United are ready to make a shock move for free agent Sol Campbell to boost their injury-hit defence.
Former England centre-back Campbell, 35, has finally reached an exit agreement with League Two Notts County following his ill-fated move.
Reds boss Sir Alex Ferguson would dearly love to get Campbell immediately as Rio Ferdinand, Jonny Evans and John O’Shea are all sidelined.
Sol Campbell is currently training with Arsenal to stay in shape.
But United are ready to offer Campbell the chance to train with them instead ahead of the transfer window opening on January 1 to asses the veteran’s fitness.
And United boss Ferguson may then offer Campbell a six-month contract until the end of the season.
