Falkirk wait for Man City keeper Schmeichel

Falkirk will learn by the weekend if they will be able to re-sign Manchester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

The 21-year-old's agent, Michael Johansen, confirmed Eriksson will make a decision on Schmeichel soon. Johansen told the Daily Record: "Kasper is in Sweden at City's pre-season camp and will have to show Sven what he's made of.

"From then on, it's up to the manager to decide whether or not he wishes to send him out on loan again.

"Obviously, with the likes of Swedish No.1 Andreas Isaksson in front of him, it will be very difficult for Kasper to get first-team football at City.

"He did very well during his time in Scotland. He really improved and picked up valuable experience.

"I think his spell at Falkirk was very good for him and I'm sure he would be happy to spend another season on loan there if Sven decides that is what is best for him.

"Kasper has one more year left until the end of his current contract and until then his future will be decided by Manchester City.

"He and I will sit down with Sven when they return from Sweden next week and I'm sure we'll come to a conclusion."
