Ashton United, who play in the seventh tier of English football, have made an approach to take Erling Haaland on loan.
The Manchester City star is set for a month off whilst the World Cup is going on after Norway failed to quality for the tournament in Qatar. Haaland has taken the Premier League by storm, breaking numerous records and is on course to scoop the Golden Boot having already scored 18 times.
Now though the City marksman will have an extended period without any games and Ashton United claim "it just makes sense" to have Haaland join them at the Hurst Cross Stadium. Their stadium is only 6.5 miles from the Etihad, meaning the striker wouldn't have to travel far for games.
