Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are reportedly ready to challenge Real Madrid for the signature of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland.


The 19-year old was strongly linked with a move to Manchester United in January, but Dortmund ultimately won the race to sign the Norway International from Red Bull Salzburg.

Haaland made it 13 goals in 12 appearances for the German club when he netted in their 4 - 0 win over Schalke 04 on Saturday afternoon.

A recent report claimed that Madrid had identified the teenager as a leading transfer target as they look for a long-term Karim Benzema replacement.

However, according to Marca, PSG are also very much in the hunt for the Norwegian, who has a contract at Signal Iduna Park until the end of 2023-24 campaign.

United are also allegedly considering reviving their interest ahead of the summer transfer window.
