“I especially like English football”
Speaking about former boss Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Haaland claimed his countryman has had a huge impact on his life.
“He has had a huge impact on my life, both as a person and as a trainer,” He explained to TV2, as cited by the Mirror.
“He won the Champions League and was an incredibly good player. He has taught me a lot.”
As a result, Haaland has suggested that he could follow in the footsteps of Solskjær and move to the Premier League.
“I have dreamed of playing for the best clubs in the world my whole life, and I especially like English football,” he continued.
Safe to say, Manchester United boss Solskjær will be keeping an eye on his countryman.
Who knows, a move to Old Trafford could even be on the cards for Haaland if he continues to impress.
