Juventus to snap up Molde sensation Erling Haaland

Serie A champions Juventus have reportedly close to agreeing a deal to sign the 17-year-old Molde forward Erling Haaland.

Norwegian media outlets are all citing Italian Il Tempo, claiming that Bianconeri have lodged a €5 million offer for the son of former Manchester City and Leeds United midfielder Alf Inge Haaland who has caused quite a stir with his performances lately.

Molde striker has been under a close watch of Manchester United who were in attendance for Molde’s Sunday match against rivals Valerenga.

Haaland scored a brace and set up one in his team’s compelling 5-1 victory to further increase his stock value and present himself as one of the biggest prospects in European football.

Juventus do not want to waste any time and risk losing Haaland to Manchester United which is why they have already opened negotiations with Molde hoping to grab the youngster and take him to Turin.

Bianconeri nurture a close relationship with Molde and are rather optimistic about the proposed deal.
