Man Utd academy duo in Arsenal talks

[Getty Images] There is a bit of movement within the academy ranks at Manchester United, with a number of their older players set for moves to rival clubs. Winger James Scanlon and full-back Habeeb Ogunneye, who spent time on loan in League Two with Swindon and Newport respectively last season, are both in talks with Arsenal. Although the pair only made a handful of appearances in senior football, it is felt, at 19 and 20, they have further development in them. Neither were involved in United's pre-season campaign under Michael Carrick, even though 15 academy players were picked in the 25-man squad for the opening game against Wrexham in Helsinki on 18 July. Ogunneye started for United's Under-21 side in a pre-season match against Altrincham on 31 July. Scanlon, who has 24 caps for Gibraltar and featured in the Premier League 2 play-off final defeat at Brighton in May, missed the game with a minor injury. It is understood other players with significant experience at Under-21 level, who have also had periods away from United on loan, could move before the transfer deadline on 1 September.
