Manchester United fans seem excited by quotes from their manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Red Bull Salzburg striker Erling Haaland.
The Norway international has shone this season, with his prolific scoring record making him look like one of the most outstanding young talents in Europe.

With 28 goals in 22 games, it’s clear Haaland is a special talent and could strengthen this struggling United side, with the Daily Mirror strongly linking him with a move to Old Trafford.
Solskjaer now seems to have hinted there could be something to the speculation as he certainly didn’t rule out the potential move.
When asked about it in his post-match press conference today, the Norwegian tactician gave this response, as quoted by Samuel Luckhurst of the Manchester Evening News:
