Haaland has scored 28 goals in 22 matches for Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga, the Austrian Cup and the Champions League so far this season.

It suggests United may have won the race to sign the in-demand player amid interest from Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and others.

It came after United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted his interest in signing a player he coached for two years at Molde in Norway.

‘He is a player I like. We are looking for good players all the time,’ Solskjaer told Viasport.
