Red Bull Salzburg management are coming around to an acceptance that Erling Haaland will have to be sold in January.

Salzburg chief Christoph Freund cannot rule out Haaland leaving over the New Year - an opinion shared by many on the board, says VG.

Freund said earlier this week: "At the moment there is no bid on our table.

"We are relaxed and Erling is relaxed. We enjoy the time with him. It's nice that we have a 19-year-old that many big clubs in Europe are really interested in."

VG says some of Europe's biggest clubs have had scouts watch Haaland this month: Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Valencia and Sevilla have all been represented at Salzburg games in recent weeks.
