Man utd news update live:
Erling Braut Haaland put Manchester United, Liverpool and a host of clubs across Europe on alert with his record-breaking Champions League double on Wednesday.
Haaland, who has been linked with a move to United , fired another two goals as his Red Bull Salzburg lost 3-2 to Napoli in Liverpool's Champions League group.
The brace took his tally for the season so far to an astonishing 20 from 13 matches.
And it broke records in the Champions League, with the 19-year-old Norwegian becoming the first player to score six goals in his first three Champions League appearances.
He also became the second teenager to score in each of his first three Champions League appearances, after Karim Benzema.
Haaland also became the first teenager to score six goals in a Champions League season, having scored a hat-trick in Salzburg's 6-2 win over Genk, followed by one in their 4-3 defeat to Liverpool .
Those six goals also make him the top scorer in the Champions League so far this season.
Haaland has been touted as a target for United and rivals Manchester City , while Liverpool, Real Madrid and Barcelona are all believed to be watching him.
As the son of former Leeds United and Manchester City ace Alfe Inge Haaland, his dad's links might make it difficult for him to sign for United.
However, a big factor in the Red Devils' favour is the fact that he has played under his compatriot Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with the United manager having given Haaland his senior debut at Molde.
Haaland has previously said of Solskjaer: "He has had a huge impact on my life, both as a person and as a trainer.
"He won the Champions League and was an incredibly good player. He has taught me a lot."
Talking to TV2, Haaland added: "I have dreamed of playing for the best clubs in the world my whole life, and I especially like English football."
