According to the Spurs' forward, he will 'focus on myself' as he looks to outshine the former Borussia Dortmund star.

"As you know me, I don’t focus on too many other people, I focus on myself and what I can do," he added.

Manchester United painfully missed out on the chance to sign a young Erling Haaland, despite getting the green light from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

a few years back, Solskjaer was smitten with Haaland’s talents, and he phoned the Man United bosses to make a move for him possibly.
