Brighton defender Leo Skiri Ostigard is urging Manchester United to move for RB Salzburg striker Erling Haaland.

Haaland scored NINE goals as Norway Under-20s thrashed Honduras 12-0 at the Under-20 World Cup.

His close friend and Brighton defender Ostigard has urged United boss Ole Gunnar Solkjaer to sign him this summer.

Ostigard said: “If there is one player Ole Gunnar needs, then it is Erling.

“The faster, the better."

Haaland, the son of former Manchester City midfielder Alfie Haaland, played for Solskjaer at Molde before his move to Austria.
