Isak Hansen-Aarøen wins senior promotion at Man Utd

Isak Hansen-Aarøen has been promoted to senior training at Manchester United.

The Norway U21 attacker, 17, is in line for a senior bow this weekend as United split teams for preseason friendlies against Rayo Vallecano and Atletico Madrid.

Hansen-Aarøen could return to his homeland when United face Atletico in Oslo on Saturday, with their match against Vallecano taking place at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Hansen-Aarøen signed his first professional contract with United a year ago but is yet to be named in a senior matchday squad.

The Manchester Evening News says Shola Shoretire was also pictured training with the senior side on Thursday. The 18-year-old was not part of the pre-season tour squad as the club consider loan options for him this summer.
