Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick has reportedly spoken to Erling Haaland's father Alf-Inge as he pushes to sign the Borussia Dortmund hitman.
In-demand striker Haaland's contract at the German club expires in the summer of 2023 and Dortmund are reportedly set to hold showdown talks to clarify his future.
Yet a report in the Manchester Evening News says that Rangnick has recently talked to Haaland's father - ex-Man City player Alf-Inge Haaland - about a potential move to Old Trafford next year.
