Manchester United have one concern with Erling Haaland deal

Manchester United are reportedly doubtful over a winter deal for Erling Haaland due to the presence of Mino Raiola, who is the agent of the Red Bull Salzburg striker.

The Norwegian has amassed 28 goals from 22 games for the Austrian champions this season and he has been touted to pursue a big-money move at the beginning of the year.

United have regularly been mentioned as one of the admirers but their prospects of signing the teenager appear slim at the moment, according to The Star.

Haaland does have a good relationship with United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer from their days at Molde but a deal with Salzburg could break down due to Raiola's presence.

Raiola has had a mixed relationship with the United board after trying to force through Paul Pogba's departure last summer and he is still said to be eyeing suitors for the France international.

United recently jumped to the seventh position in the Premier League standings following a splendid 4-1 triumph over Newcastle United on Boxing Day.
