“They are looking at the next generation like Mbappé, like Haaland.”
Haaland has scored 31 goals so far in his first full season at Dortmund.

Nicol said: “If someone says to Haaland, at Man United, ‘by the way, you could be the next biggest superstar at Old Trafford to lead us to a Premier League title and back to Europe’, that could be what influences “.
“Becoming the man, instead of going and joining Manchester City or Liverpool or wherever.
“To go and be the boss of Old Trafford and bring United back to the top.
