Manchester United are one of many big clubs across Europe who are exploring the possibility of snapping up Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland. German football expert Guido Schafer believes the Red Devils have a great advantage in the race for the player due to the presence of their manager Ralf Rangnick.
According to him, Rangnick's reputation and connections with many young players, agents, and managers across Europe will be of help to Manchester United in their chase for the 21-year-old.
When asked if Rangnick could convince Haaland to switch to Old Trafford this summer, the German football expert replied on Stretford Paddock’s Tier 1 podcast:
“Yes, I think so. Ralf Rangnick has a very good name and he’s a famous guy in Europe. He has good contacts to many good young players and also to the managers and agents."
Guido Schafer then pointed to the tactician's time at RB Leipzig, where he played an influential role in signing many good players including Dayot Upamecano and Ibrahima Konate. He expects the same from his countryman at Manchester United in the race for the Borussia Dortmund striker.
Schafer continued:
"He [Rangnick] brought so many good players to [RB] Leipzig – Upamecano, Konate, Werner – and I think this is a great advantage for Manchester United that Rangnick will speak to the family, the player and his agent.
“He’s brilliant and I think Manchester United have a very good chance to get Erling Haaland.”
Manchester United facing intense competition in the race for Erling Haaland
The striker recently revealed that the Bundesliga giants have asked him to make a decision on his future amid constant speculation. As it stands, many clubs are monitoring his situation at Signal Iduna Park as they plan to snap him up in the summer.
The likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester City are Manchester United's top rivals in the race for the player's signature. Liverpool and Bayern Munich have also been rumored to be keeping an interest in signing the Norwegian. It remains to be seen where the youngster will end up plying his trade come next season.

I like Man Utd's approach to transfers now. We distanced ourselves from this farce already. If it must happen, we should go for it when the time is right. We should make our intentions and offer clear, so as not to be bullied by an agent. Prolonged sagas don't mean anything, you can even lose the player in the end. Go for it, if the demands are unreasonable, it also means you will have a yearly cold war in the media with player and his agent. They will flirt with other teams from time to time to try extort more money, distabilising the dressing room. Your dressing room will not know peace from such spoiled brats by agents. Rather go for a player who really wants to come, such players always find a way to compromise with the club they want to join.

don't be dull and shallow minded 1. i asked you which club do you support, you didn't answer 2. you asking me the last time we won a trophy 3. you claiming your club to be great than Manchester United in terms of trophy collection 4. you speaking about history ***""""" for your own information what you claim to be history is also known as a record a record can only be called history if someone has broken it. break the Manchester United records of trophiless then you go boast of them been historical. sec anything from last season going backwards is derived as History unless your so called club won a trophy this season then you right to say Manchester United is based on history. third you trying to mean if a club did not collect a trophy in last season that club is a trophiless club, so it means if your club club collected a single trophy in last 5 years it has got 1 trophy only? was your so called club not there during Manchester United trophy collection seasons? you do speak as if Manchester United was playing against other teams not existing but surprisingly your club was there. last thing to tell you if you were born in 1990 it means you are 32 years today it doesn't mean you are 1 year today because 1990 - 2021 is now history. get up and study rather opening your mouth to talk about something you don't know

we don't play Europa league every 2 seasons like you And remember Liverpool is so far better than United shut up Rubbish
sometimes Liverpool never plaayed in champions league or Europa league. Open your eyes, Liverpool best has passed. Hate t say it but Manchester City is the best in England. Liverpool is in the same league as Leicester and Blackburn.

No world-class player will want to go to that dead and trophyless club who are only playing for one player to score a goal and claim to be the best in the world. Even the few good players they have now are desperately looking for a way out.

Well all is good and well, but I will rather wait and see..I would love Halaand to join MU and I am sure he will do well in the PL. he is young, strong, fast and definitely has the hunger to score goals.
Ronaldo will never want haaland in man utd, because he knows haaland will take the spotlight away from him. He wouldn't want that.

👉 Because Man U plays great? Because Man U is dominating the league? Because Ronaldo is his idol? Because Ralf Rang- is his favorite coach? Because there's no better side there right now? Because Haaland has no other choice? Because ...?!
