RIO DE JANEIRO, July 17 (Xinhua) -- Former Uruguay and Manchester United striker Diego Forlan is in talks to join Norwegian top-flight club Sandefjord, according to media reports.

Player agent Terje Liverod, a Norwegian who lives in Uruguay, said he is involved in negotiations to woo the 38-year-old out of retirement.

"I can confirm that Sandefjord are trying to sign Forlan," Liverod was quoted as saying by the Uol news portal.

"He is the most professional player I've seen. Obviously he is able to bring something different to the team despite lacking match fitness."

Forlan has not played since ending a spell with Mumbai City in December.
