Follow-up observations of SN2007uy with the Swift/XRT reveal a new transient source about 95 arcsec away from the SN position at RA=09:09:30.7, Dec=+33:08:19 (J2000). This position coincides with the outskirts of the host galaxy of SN2007uy (NGC 2770). The object was not detected in the previous observation of SN2007uy (ATEL #1350) and is detected only in the first 1 ksec of the new observation. During that time the light curve is FRED-like with a rise time of about 50 sec and a decay to the background level by about 600 sec.
