Manchester United are one of many top European clubs monitoring Erling Haaland's contract situation - but he could have already been a Red Devils player for an initial fee of just £3million but for a costly mix-up.
Haaland, who could leave Borussia Dortmund this summer for a fee of around £150m, enjoyed a breakthrough season at Molde in 2018, bagging 12 goals in 25 Norwegian top-flight games under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to help the team finish runners-up in the Eliteserien.
That summer saw Haaland high in demand, but according to the Mirror, Red Bull Salzburg won the race for the striker's signature after capitalising on United's misunderstanding.
