Rumour Has It: Man Utd to prioritise Haaland signing in 2022

Manchester United had a busy window in the transfer market.

The Red Devils landed Cristiano Ronaldo as well as Raphael Varane and Jadon Sancho.

But their plans will not stop there, as the Red Devils set their sights on re-claiming silverware.

TOP STORY – HAALAND TO BE UNITED’S TRANSFER PRIORITY

Manchester United’s priority transfer target in mid-2021 will be Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland despite their recent spending spree, claims ESPN.

Haaland can trigger a release in his Dortmund contract at the end of the 2021-22 season that is reportedly set at €75 million.

ESPN’s report cites sources who claim United’s capture of Ronaldo came outside of their transfer budget, meaning it will not impact their 2022 recruitment plans.
