Napoli believe that Manchester United are at the head of the queue to sign Erling Haaland this January.

The RB Salzburg star has burst onto the scene with his domestic and European performances in the past 18 months.

The 19-year-old has 21 goals in 14 games for his Austrian side, along with six in three Champions League games.

Corriere dello Sportsays Napoli wanted to sign Haaland, but they have removed themselves from the equation.

The Italian giants believe that United are the ones that are showing the strongest interest.

Their head scout, Loris Boni, is quoted as saying that if Solskjaer is still United boss in January, they are the first possible destination for Haaland.

United have made no secret of their desire to sign an attacker in the coming transfer windows.
