Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that Manchester United could have signed Erling Haaland for just £4million, but his recommendation was ignored by the club.
Solskjaer had worked with a young Haaland during his time in charge of Molde. The Norwegian came through his first season with just four goals but burst onto the scene in 2018 with 12 goals in 25 Eliteserien appearances, including four in 21 minutes.
Haaland's form that year inevitably alerted clubs across Europe, but Solskjaer seemingly wanted to give his former club a heads-up before others across the continent circled.
