Manchester United are reluctant to enter a bidding war for Erling Haaland this summer, with Manchester City emerging as favourites to sign the prolific Borussia Dortmund star.
United thought they had a deal tied up for Haaland in January 2020, after manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer flew to Austria for talks with his fellow Norwegian, but the Red Bull Salzburg striker made a £19.5million move to Dortmund instead.
City, Chelsea and Real Madrid will lead the chase for Haaland if the 20-year-old leaves Germany in the summer, having already scored 37 goals in 34 appearances for Dortmund and Norway this season.
