Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to rival Real Madrid in the race to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland this summer.

Real Madrid will reportedly face competition to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland from Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

Haaland has burst onto the scene this season, scoring 28 goals in just 22 games for Red Bull Salzburg to earn a January move to Dortmund.

The 19-year-old has maintained that hot streak in front of goal with 12 in 11 outings for the German outfit - despite starting just seven of those games - to take his overall season tally to 40 goals in 33 games across all competitions.

Real Madrid are understood to have made Haaland their top transfer target this summer, but Mundo Deportivo reports that Manchester United and Tottenham are also interested in his signature.

United missed out on the prolific Norwegian in January but are ready to revive their pursuit when the transfer window reopens, while Spurs are in the market for attacking reinforcements having seen their form drastically tail off following injuries to Harry Kane and Son Heung-min this season.

Haaland has a €75m (£68.5m) release clause in his contract at the Westfalenstadion, but his agent Mino Raiola, who has fallen out with Man United in the past over Paul Pogba, recently suggested that the teenager will stay at Dortmund for the foreseeable future.
