Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remains keen on Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
Despite his high profile and unexpected snub, the London Evening Standard says Solskjaer remains a firm admirer – and with a buyout clause believed to be in the region of £50m, Haaland is still attainable if he decides to rekindle his interest.
But agent Mino Raiola, who angered Old Trafford chiefs by trying to insert a buyout clause during negotiations with United, believes his client's development is best served in Dortmund for the foreseeable future.
“He's a very important gem," Raiola told Marca. “It's great to see him play and to see how he develops in every game.
“It's not easy to go from Austria to Germany and show that level. “He has a lot to improve yet. He'll be at Dortmund for as long as he needs to be."
