Dundee United 'edging closer' to Levitt deal
Dundee United boss Jack Ross says he's hopeful his side are 'edging closer' to sealing another loan swoop for Manchester United midfielder Dylan Levitt, despite strong interest from Cardiff City.
The 21-year-old spent last season on loan with the Tangerines, and proved a big hit at Tannadice, notching six goals and earning one assist.
Cardiff had been linked with moves for the Wales international. However, new boss Ross is clearly hopeful his side can win the race to sign Levit on a season long loan.
“Tony Asghar has spoken publicly about Dylan and said we have a strong desire to bring him back to the club,” said Ross.
“That process has been going on for a while now — and hopefully we are edging closer to bringing him back.
“That would be brilliant because he was hugely impressive when I came up against him [as Hibs manager] last season. I watched other games and he’s obviously a full international with Wales.
“There is a lot in his profile that fits and he’s one we’ve been working on for quite a while and hopefully we’re getting closer to it.”
