Erling Haaland’s father responds to reported Man United interest

The Red Devils have been regularly linked with a bid to sign the Norway international from Borussia Dortmund after Manchester United missed out on the signing of the striker when he left Red Bull Salzburg in January 2019.

The Athletic reported on Monday that Chelsea FC are ready to make a club-record bid to sign Haaland following the 20-year-old’s prolific performances for Dortmund this season.

It’s common knowledge that Haaland will be available to sign in a £66.6m deal when his contract release clause becomes active in the 2022 summer transfer window.

Manchester City, Manchester United and Real Madrid are all thought to be keeping tabs on the Norwegian forward’s situation at Borussia Dortmund aheads of the 2022 summer transfer window.
