Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remained coy amid intensifying talk about Manchester United’s interest in Erling Haaland. United are not alone in showing interest but boss Solskjaer already has a personal relationship with striker Haaland thanks to their time together at Molde. “I don’t think he’s en route here, to be fair – not through me, anyway,” Solskjaer said. And while clearly uncomfortable talking about other clubs’ players, the United boss is hopeful they can bolster the squad in January. He is not coming to Manchester because... well, I know the boy and I know his friends and all this.
