Speaking on Gary Neville's Stick to Football podcast this week, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer claims he rang Manchester United and told them to sign a young striker called Erling Haaland for just €20m. United declined, according to Solskjaer, Haaland joined Borussia Dortmund and is now smashing records and winning Champions Leagues for Manchester City. That is when the Norwegian claims he told United to make a move before Dortmund did, but was told they had no interest. Even with his links with Alfie and Manchester City and Leeds. Asked which team he was looking forward to facing the most, he replied: "I have to say, I don't like to say the words, but Manchester United."
