What the papers say
The arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford is reportedly not an obstacle to Manchester United's pursuit of Erling Haaland. The Expresss says despite Ronaldo's return the club still want to sign the 21-year-old from Borussia Dortmund next summer, with United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer understood to be a big fan of the Norway striker.
Putting in the groundwork with Jude Bellingham could pay off for United, according to the Sun. The paper reports the club wooed the teenager in 2020, including time with Solskjaer and former United manager Sir Alex Ferguson touring the training ground, before he opted to join Dortmund. The 18-year-old England international and his family were impressed by the Red Devils' efforts and a source has told the Sun "maybe in the future that will work in their favour".
Players to watch
Paul Pogba: The Express says Manchester United are prepared to offer their France international £400,000-a-week to keep him at Old Trafford and make him the highest paid Premier League player of all time, but Spain's Mundo Deportivo reports Barcelona are also ready to swoop for the 28-year-old midfielder.
Aurelien Tchouameni: Monaco's France under-21 midfielder will be targeted by Chelsea and Juventus in January, according to Tuttomercatoweb.
