Manchester United have reportedly identified Red Bull Salzburg hotshot Erling Braut Haaland as their ‘primary target’ next summer – but will face fierce competition from Real Madrid.

The 19-year-old has scored a remarkable 18 goals in 11 appearances this season, and after a recent illness, he climbed off the bench to notch Salzburg’s equaliser in this month’s Champions League clash with Liverpool at Anfield, which the Reds ultimately went on to win 4-3

However United will face a battle with Madrid, who are also believed to be keen on bringing him to the Bernabeu.
It is claimed that Haaland ‘fits like a glove’ as Madrid are keen on finding a long-term replacement for Karim Benzema, who turns 31 in December.
Meanwhile Haaland says he is “bored” of the speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United among other clubs.
