Man Utd: What could tempt Haaland to Old Trafford?
Manchester United are believed to be one of the leaders in the race to sign Borussia Dortmund star Erling Haaland this summer, with reports suggesting club officials will meet with the Norwegian's agent this week. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will then have to decide what his plans are for Mason Greenwood, who had a brilliant game against Brighton on Sunday.
United are set for a busy transfer window this summer, with a new centre-forward on the agenda.
The Red Devils may well lose Edinson Cavani at the end of the season, with the Uruguayan out of contract once the current campaign ends.
It has been claimed that Old Trafford chiefs want a replacement for Anthony Martial to be brought in, amid doubts that the Frenchman can lead the line.
Haaland is believed to be the ideal target, with Dortmund wanting a whopping £127million for their star man.

Manchester City, Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid are all said to be interested, and it could well be the case that United get dragged into a bidding war.
Even if they win the race for Europe's hottest young talent, the question will remain of what happens to Greenwood.
The youngster shone last season and has looked impressive in the current campaign, despite a fairly poor goal return of just six goals in 40 games across all competitions.
Greenwood had a brilliant showing on Sunday and was the difference against Brighton, bagging the winner late in the game from close range.
