Man Utd trialist Kjetil Haug flattered to be likened to Schmeichel

Sarpsborgs goalkeeper Kjetil Haug is flattered to be likened to Peter Schmeichel.

Haug, 15, had recent trials with Manchester United and is being compared with the great Dane.

"It's strange to be compared with one of the best ever goalkeepers. But it is of course great and I am honored. He is one of my biggest role models," Haug told TV2.

"It was very special to be on trial at United since I am supporter myself."
