Man Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer met Erling Haaland over potential transfer

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reportedly met Erling Braut Haaland on Friday to discuss a potential January transfer.

Haaland has become one of Europe’s hottest transfer properties after firing in 28 goals in 22 games for Red Bull Salzburg this season including eight in the Champions
League group stages.

And Solskjaer flew to Salzburg on Friday for urgent talks with Haaland.

Reports claims Solskjaer went on a mission to Austria after it emerged that Haaland had met with representatives of Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig in the preceding days.

He then returned to Manchester to prepare his United side for Sunday’s Premier League clash against Everton at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer will no doubt be hoping the personal touch will help persuade Haaland, who played under the United boss when
Solskjaer was manager of Norwegian club Molde.
